EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary Emma Calve as Fanny Legrand in the opera-comique Sapho by Massenet. The poster, created for the premiere performance on 27 November 1897 at the Ope, is a true masterpiece of art nouveau and graphic design. Emma Calve's enchanting presence leaps off the page, her expressive eyes drawing you into her world of passion and drama. Dressed in an exquisite costume that epitomizes French theatre elegance, she embodies the essence of Fanny Legrand with grace and poise. The fine art images captured in this colour lithograph transport us back to a time when opera was at its height, where emotions ran high and music filled every corner of grand theatres. It is a testament to the power of artistic expression and its ability to transcend time. This private collection piece holds immense historical value, preserving not only Emma Calve's iconic portrayal but also showcasing Jean de Pal Ologue Paleologu's exceptional talent as a poster artist. Through his skilled brushstrokes, he captures both the allure of ballet and the dramatic intensity that unfolds within Sapho. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of how art has always been intertwined with our lives - inspiring us, evoking emotions within us, and leaving an indelible mark on our cultural heritage.
