Mlle. Delphine Mante as Rosine in The Barber of Seville
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating hand-colored lithograph depicting the renowned French actress in her iconic role as Rosine from Pierre Beaumarchais' classic comedy, "The Barber of Seville." The image, created by F. Noel after an illustration by Alexandre-Marie Colin, is a stunning testament to the theatrical artistry of the 19th century. Mlle. Delphine Mante, also known as Louise-Charles-Theophile, is captured in this print in the midst of her performance as Rosine, the spirited and resourceful young woman who outwits the pompous Figaro and wins the heart of her beloved, Count Almaviva. The intricate details of her elaborate 1820s costume, complete with a flowing gown and a feathered headdress, add to the allure of the scene. The illustration, published in the collection "Portraits d'Acteurs et d'Actrices dans différents rôles" by F. Noel in Paris in 1825, showcases the skillful artistry of both the lithographer and the illustrator. The delicate shading and precise lines bring the image to life, making it a true work of art. Mlle. Delphine Mante's portrayal of Rosine was undoubtedly a crowd-pleaser during her time at the Théâtre Français. This print serves as a reminder of her talent and the enduring appeal of Beaumarchais' timeless tale of love and deception. The intricate details of the image, from the rich textures of the actors' costumes to the expressive facial expressions, transport us back to the world of the theatre and offer a glimpse into the past. This print is a must-have for any collection of historical theatre art or for those with an appreciation for the artistry of the 19th century.
