EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the world of French theater. In the foreground, Francois Andrieux, a renowned playwright and poet from the 19th century, can be seen engrossed in reading his tragedy "Junius Brutus". The scene takes place in the foyer of the prestigious Comedie Francaise on May 26th, 1828. Surrounding Andrieux are influential figures who have gathered to listen attentively to his work. Alexandre Duval, an esteemed playwright himself, stands nearby alongside Mlle Mars, a celebrated actress known for her exceptional talent. Also present is Baron Isidore Justin Taylor, an accomplished author and playwright whose contributions to French literature cannot be overstated. Completing this distinguished group is Mme Marguerite Louise-Virginie Ancelot – an accomplished author and painter. The atmosphere within the room is one of anticipation and admiration as these prominent individuals come together to appreciate Andrieux's creative genius. Their presence signifies not only their respect for him but also their recognition of his immense contribution to French theater. Through this detailed oil painting by Francois Joseph Heim (1787-1865), we are transported back in time to witness this historic gathering firsthand.
