EDITORS COMMENTS
This image features Swedish opera sensation Jenny Lind, also known as the "Swedish Nightingale," in the role of "The Regiment's Daughter" from the comic opera "La Fille du Régiment" (The Daughter of the Regiment) by Gaetano Donizetti. Dressed in a stunning hoopskirt and crinoline, adorned with intricate floral decorations, and accessorized with a military-style bonnet and sash, Lind exudes both femininity and strength. The grey background adds depth and contrast to the vibrant colors of her dress and the decorative elements of the dish in the foreground. This photograph, believed to have been taken in the 1850s, is a testament to the rich history of opera and theatrical entertainment during the nineteenth century. The image is hand-colored or hand-tinted, adding an extra layer of detail and artistry to the already impressive attire. The presence of background people suggests that this photograph may have been taken during a performance or rehearsal. The Swedish-born Lind was a renowned opera singer who gained international fame for her exceptional voice and captivating stage presence. She toured Europe and the United States, performing in some of the most prestigious opera houses and theaters of the time. This photograph is a valuable piece of memorabilia, offering a glimpse into the world of opera and the fashion trends of the 1850s. This image is currently housed in the Gävleborg County Museum in Sweden, where it serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and artistic traditions of the past. The photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of Jenny Lind and the impact she had on the world of opera and entertainment.
