EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a pivotal scene between Phedre and her confidante Oenone in the first act of Racine's tragic play, "Phedre". The French School artist from the 19th century beautifully brings to life this intense moment from the theatre world. The image showcases Phedre, a complex and tormented character, engaged in an emotional exchange with her trusted companion Oenone. Their expressions reveal a mixture of anguish, desperation, and secrecy as they navigate through their intricate relationship. The dramatic lighting enhances the intensity of their interaction on stage. This print was originally created as an illustration for Arthur Pougin's "Dictionnaire du Theatre" published in 1884. It serves as a visual representation of one of Racine's most renowned works and offers viewers a glimpse into the profound emotions that unfold throughout the play. As we delve into this historical artwork, we are transported back to a time when theatre was at its peak - where drama unfolded on stage with passion and eloquence. This engraving not only pays homage to Racine but also highlights the enduring power of storytelling through performance. With its rich history and timeless themes, this image serves as a reminder that great art can transcend time and continue to captivate audiences across generations.
