EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph depicts the renowned French actor Joseph Laurent in the iconic role of Mousqueton from Alexandre Dumas' classic novel "Les Mousquetaires" (The Three Musketeers), performed at the Théâtre de l'Ambigu-Comique in Paris during 1845. The image, based on an illustration by Alexandre Lacauchie, is part of the extensive collection "Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Théâtres de Paris" by Victor Dollet and Louis Lasalle. Joseph Laurent (1801-1871) was a celebrated French actor, known for his versatility and charisma on stage. In this portrayal of Mousqueton, he embodies the spirit of the dashing and loyal musketeer, with his confident gaze, military posture, and elegant attire. The intricate details of his costume, from the embroidered vest to the feathered hat, are beautifully rendered in the handcoloured lithograph, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship of the time. "Les Mousquetaires" by Alexandre Dumas is a timeless tale of adventure, romance, and friendship, and this image of Joseph Laurent as Mousqueton serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of the story and the talent of the actors who have brought its characters to life on stage. This rare and exquisite lithograph is a must-have for any collector of French theatre history or fans of Alexandre Dumas' literary masterpiece.
