EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic moment from the theatrical representation of Victor Hugo's "Lucrece Borgia". In this scene, Gennaro, portrayed by Maurice Volny, drinks the poison poured by his mother Lucrece, played by Mademoiselle Favart. The presence of Alphonse d Este, portrayed by Dumaine, adds to the intensity and tension of the act. The engraving by Adrien Marie beautifully depicts the emotional turmoil and tragic fate that befalls these characters. The expressions on their faces convey anguish and despair as they navigate through this harrowing scene. The attention to detail in their costumes transports us back to 1881 Paris at Theatre de la Gaite. Victor Hugo's play explores themes of power, betrayal, and familial love gone awry. This particular moment showcases Lucrece's desperation and her willingness to sacrifice her own son for her own gain. Gennaro's choice to drink the poison highlights his loyalty towards his mother despite her treacherous actions. The composition of this print is strikingly powerful with its use of light and shadow. It draws our eyes towards Gennaro as he raises the poisoned cup to his lips while surrounded by darkness. This visual contrast enhances the emotional impact of this pivotal moment in the play. Overall, this print encapsulates both the artistic brilliance behind Victor Hugo's work and the skillful performances brought forth by actors Maurice Volny, Mademoiselle Favart, and Dumaine. It serves as a timeless reminder of humanity's capacity for both love and destruction within complex family dynamics.
