EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1828, inside the grand Foyer of the Comedie Francaise. The focal point of the image is Francois Andrieux, a prominent figure in French literature and theater during his time. With an air of intensity and passion, he can be seen engrossed in reading his own tragedy Junius Brutus. Surrounding Andrieux are several notable individuals who have gathered to witness this momentous occasion. On the left stands Anne Francoise Hipollyte Boutet, also known as Mlle Mars, a renowned actress of her era. Her presence adds an aura of elegance and theatricality to the scene. The rest of the group consists of various influential figures from both literary and theatrical circles. Each individual seems completely captivated by Andrieux's words as they listen attentively. Among them are Emile Deschamps, Emmanuel Dupaty, Briffaut, Leon Halevy, Mme Ancelot, and Planard. This painting by Francois Joseph Heim beautifully captures not only a specific moment in history but also highlights the importance that theater held within French society during this period. It serves as a testament to Andrieux's talent as well as his ability to command attention from such esteemed company. Displayed at Chateau de Versailles in France today, this artwork continues to evoke curiosity and admiration for its historical significance and artistic brilliance.
