EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving depicts a scene from Pierre Corneille's play "Sophonisbe" specifically Act V, Scene II. The artwork, created by the French School in the 19th century, is part of a private collection and showcases the talent of M Geffroy's drawings for Oeuvres de P Corneille (A Laplace, Sanchez, 1884). Look closely to witness the intricate details and vibrant colors that bring this historical moment to life. The image transports us back to France during a time when theatre played an integral role in society. It captures the essence of drama and literature as we see characters immersed in their roles on stage. This print serves as a visual representation of French culture and history. Pierre Corneille was renowned for his contributions to French literature and theater. In "Sophonisbe" he tells the story of an ancient Carthaginian queen who faces immense challenges and difficult choices. Act V, Scene II likely portrays one of these pivotal moments where tension runs high. As we admire this exquisite engraving by Bridgeman Images, let us appreciate its ability to preserve not only a significant piece of art but also a slice of history. It reminds us how powerful storytelling can be through different mediums like theater and visual arts while honoring the legacy left behind by great dramatists like Pierre Corneille.
