EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Mlle Delna, a talented actress, portraying a vivandiere in the comic opera "La Vivandiere" in 1895. The artist behind this remarkable illustration is Henri Meyer, whose attention to detail and artistic flair are evident in every stroke. In this image from Le Petit Journal on April 21st, 1895, we see Mlle Delna dressed as a vivandiere - a female soldier who provided support to troops during war. Her Caucasian features are highlighted by her vibrant red jacket and hat, which add an element of color to the scene. The comical concept of the opera is reflected in her expression and attire. Mlle Delna's portrayal captures the essence of entertainment during the late 19th century. As she graces the front cover of this publication, it is clear that she was highly regarded for her talent and beauty. The engraving technique used enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of this art media piece. This print serves as a window into history, transporting us back to a time when women were breaking barriers by participating in traditionally male-dominated roles such as warfare. It reminds us of their strength and resilience amidst challenging circumstances. As we admire this exquisite artwork by Henri Meyer featuring Mlle Delna's striking portrait, we can't help but appreciate how it encapsulates both historical significance and artistic brilliance.
