EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene from Act II of Romeo and Juliet, performed at the prestigious Theatre National de l Opera in 1888. The engraving, created by Paul Destez in the 19th century, beautifully depicts the iconic balcony scene from William Shakespeare's tragic play. In this poignant image, we witness two lovers - Romeo and Juliet - caught in an eternal moment of passion and forbidden love. Their faces are illuminated by moonlight as they exchange heartfelt words that transcend their feuding families' animosity. The couple's tender embrace speaks volumes about their undying devotion to one another. The tragedy that awaits them is palpable; their doomed fate hangs heavy in the air. As members of rival households - Capulet and Montague - Romeo and Juliet face insurmountable obstacles on their path to happiness. This timeless tale serves as a reminder of the power of love against all odds but also highlights the devastating consequences it can bring. Destez masterfully captures both the emotional intensity between these star-crossed lovers and the grandeur of Gounod's operatic adaptation. This engraving now resides within Musee de la Ville de Paris, Musee Carnavalet, serving as a testament to its historical significance. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we are transported back to a time when artistry merged with tragedy on stage, leaving audiences captivated by tales that continue to resonate through centuries.
