EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Masques et visages: Paric, par-la: Phedre au Theatre-Francais Debut de M. Paul de Trois-Etoiles dans le role d Hippolyte" transports us back to the vibrant theater scene of 19th-century Paris. Created by the talented French artist Paul Gavarni in 1857-1858, this piece captures a pivotal moment in theatrical history. The central focus of the image is M. Paul de Trois-Etoiles, making his debut as Hippolyte in the renowned play "Phedre" at Theatre-Francais. His intense gaze and poised stance reveal his dedication and passion for his craft. The lithograph beautifully showcases Gavarni's skillful use of lines and shading to bring out every detail of the actor's costume and expression. As we admire this artwork, we are transported into a world where masquerades and performances were an integral part of Parisian culture. The title itself suggests that these masks and faces represent different aspects of society that converge on stage during this production. Gavarni's lithograph not only pays homage to M. Paul de Trois-Etoiles' remarkable performance but also serves as a testament to the enduring allure of theater throughout history. It reminds us that even though time may pass, art has the power to capture fleeting moments forever.
