EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the renowned French mime artist, Charles-Francois Mazurier, in his iconic role as Polichinello in the melodrama "Polichinelle Vampire" at the Theatre de la Porte Saint-Martin in Paris, 1823. The image, published in Charles Malos Almanach des Spectacles, captures Mazurier's expressive face and graceful movements as he performs a stilt dance choreographed by Jean-Baptiste Blache. Polichinello, also known as Pantalone or Punchinello, is a traditional Italian comic character often depicted as a clown or mischievous shepherd. In this production, the character takes on a darker twist as a vampire, adding an element of intrigue and suspense to the performance. Mazurier's portrayal of the character was highly acclaimed, and his ability to convey emotion through movement alone made him a beloved figure in the world of 19th-century French theater. In the image, Mazurier is depicted surrounded by a pastoral scene, with a shepherd and his sheep in the background, a dog at his feet, and a carmouche (a type of jester) and a shepherd boy in the foreground. The stage is set with a backdrop of a panorama dramatique, or dramatic panorama, adding to the immersive and theatrical experience of the production. The intricate details of the hand-colored engraving bring the scene to life, transporting us back to the bustling streets of Paris and the captivating world of 19th-century French theater.
