EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate stage design for Act II of La Juive, a renowned opera that premiered at the Paris Opera on February 23rd, 1835. Created by an anonymous artist from the 19th century French School, this watercolor on paper is now housed in the Bibliotheque de l'Opera Garnier in Paris, France. The set depicted in this image portrays the interior of Eleazar's house, one of the central characters in La Juive. The opera, composed by Jacques Fromental Halevy and with libretto by Augustin Eugene Scribe, takes place during the 15th century in Switzerland. This particular act transports audiences into Eleazar's home and immerses them into his world. The attention to detail evident in this stage design is truly remarkable. Every brushstroke brings life to Eleazar's dwelling, capturing both its grandeur and historical essence. The colors used evoke a sense of warmth and opulence while maintaining an air of authenticity. La Juive remains a significant work within operatic history due to its compelling storyline and powerful music. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only Halevy's composition but also the visual artistry that accompanies it. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene from Act II of La Juive through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment within this timeless masterpiece.
