EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us to a lively and enchanting scene. In this artwork titled "Dancing couples surround four standing women" we are immersed in a barrel vaulted hall filled with an atmosphere of celebration and joy. The image showcases five illustrations that depict various moments from Jacques Philippe Joseph de Saint Quentin's renowned play, "Mad Day, Marriage, Figaro" or "La Folle Journée, ou Le Mariage de Figaro". The play was written by Pierre Augustin Caron Beaumarchais and first performed in 1784. This etching and engraving sheet measures 6 3/8 x 4 inches (162 x 101 cm) and is part of a series capturing the essence of this theatrical masterpiece. As we observe the print closely, we see dancing couples gracefully moving around four elegantly dressed women who stand at the center of attention. The artist skillfully captures their expressions, showcasing their emotions ranging from delight to surprise. The intricate details bring life to each character portrayed in this vibrant composition. Created by Jacques Saint Quentin, a French artist born in Paris in 1738, this piece also features contributions by Claude Nicolas Malapeau from Paris (1755-1803). Together they have beautifully captured the spirit of revelry that permeates throughout this iconic play. This remarkable print allows us to relish in the artistic brilliance of these talented individuals while immersing ourselves into a world where music intertwines with dance
