EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century print depicts the intriguing character of Beronte, or Receleur, from the Commedia dell'Arte play "L'Intrigue des Filous" by Claude de Lestoille. Dated 1689, this work of art showcases the rich history and allure of French Theatre during this era. The masked figure of Beronte, with his stern expression and menacing posture, is a testament to the dramatic and often complex roles played in Commedia dell'Arte performances. Commedia dell'Arte was a popular form of theatre that originated in Italy during the Renaissance period and later spread to France. It was characterized by its improvisational nature, stock characters, and exaggerated physical comedy. Lestoille's play, "L'Intrigue des Filous," is a classic example of this theatrical tradition, with its intricate plot and colorful cast of characters. Beronte, as the Receleur or the constable, was a character known for his authority and his quick temper. He was often portrayed as a bully and a fool, making him a favorite target for the other characters in the play. In this print, Beronte's mask, with its distinctive features and exaggerated expression, adds to the overall theatricality and mystique of the production. This print is a rare and valuable glimpse into the world of 17th century French Theatre and the enigmatic character of Beronte. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of Commedia dell'Arte and the rich cultural heritage it represents.
