EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1910, showcases the intricately designed costumes of the characters from the renowned play "Chantecler" by Edmond Rostand. The image features Lucien Guitry, a prominent French actor of the time, dressed as the cockerel or rooster, Chantecler, with his counterpart, Galipaux, portrayed by Dorival Deraisy, in the blackbird costume. The attention to detail in these costumes is truly remarkable. Chantecler's outfit includes a vibrant, golden-feathered headdress, a red and gold collar, and a flowing, orange-and-yellow robe adorned with intricate gold patterns. In contrast, Galipaux's blackbird costume is equally impressive, with a black, feathered headdress, a long, flowing cape, and a beak that appears to be made of real feathers. Surrounding these two central figures, we see a menagerie of other animal characters from the play. A regal peacock, with its iridescent blue-green train, stands proudly, while a curious owl, with its large, expressive eyes and intricately designed wings, peeks out from behind. A playful dog, with a red collar and a mischievous expression, completes the scene. "Chantecler," first performed in 1910, is a whimsical and imaginative play that explores the themes of friendship, love, and the passage of time. The unique and elaborate costumes, as seen in this photograph, added an extra layer of magic and enchantment to the production, transporting audiences to a fantastical world where animals could speak, sing, and express human emotions. This photograph is a testament to the creativity and artistry of the production, and a reminder of the enduring appeal of Rostand's beloved play.
