EDITORS COMMENTS
Marie ou l'Inondation," a captivating theatrical production staged at the Theatre de la Porte St. Martin in Paris during 1846, brought to life the story of Marie, a humble miller's daughter who falls in love with the wealthy Louis Lasalle. This lithograph print, hand-colored by Anicet Bourgeois and Francis Cornu, showcases Mlle. Angelina Grave in the title role as Marie. The image is based on an illustration by Alexandre Lacauchie, which was published in Victor Dollet's Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris. Mlle. Angelina Grave's portrayal of Marie was a sensation, with her expressive face and elegant posture capturing the essence of the character's emotions. Her simple yet elegant costume, consisting of a white blouse and a long, flowing skirt, adds to her innocent and pure appearance. The background of the print depicts the flooded landscape, symbolizing the challenges and trials that Marie faces in her relationship with Louis Lasalle. The collaboration between Bourgeois, Cornu, Lacauchie, and Dollet resulted in a stunning visual representation of the theatrical production. The hand-coloring technique adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a beautiful and intriguing piece of theatre history. Marie ou l'Inondation was a popular play during the 19th century, and this print serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of the story and the talent of those involved in its creation. The Theatre de la Porte St. Martin was a renowned venue for theatrical productions during the 19th century, and this print provides a glimpse into the world of Parisian theatre during that time. The intricate details of the costumes, the expressive faces of the actors, and the captivating storylines made for unforgettable theatrical experiences, and this print is a reminder of the magic that was created on the stage during that era.
