EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the renowned French actor Nicolas-Baptiste Anselme, also known as Baptiste Anselme aine, in his iconic role as Le Capitaine in the classic play "Les deux Frères" (The Two Brothers) at the Comédie Française in Paris. The image, published in Charles Malos Almanach des Spectacles by Louis Janet in 1820, offers a glimpse into the theatrical world of the early 19th century. Anselme, born in 1761, was a celebrated figure on the French stage, known for his versatility and emotional depth. In "Les deux Frères," he portrayed the character of Le Capitaine, a soldier who returns from war to find his long-lost brother and falls in love with his sister-in-law. The play, a masterpiece of French literature by Jean-François Marmontel, explores themes of brotherly love, jealousy, and forgiveness. The meticulously handcoloured engraving captures the intensity and drama of Anselme's performance, as he delivers a heartfelt speech or engages in a passionate argument. The intricate details of his military uniform, the expressive facial features, and the theatrical setting all contribute to the overall atmosphere of the image. This print is an invaluable historical record of Anselme's career and the theatrical traditions of the Comédie Française during the Romantic era. It invites us to imagine the excitement and emotion of a live performance, as the audience watched this talented actor bring Le Capitaine to life on stage.
