EDITORS COMMENTS
This photographic print showcases a portrait painting of the legendary French actress, Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923), created by the renowned artist Jules Bastien-Lepage around 1870. The painting, titled "Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923)" or "La Divine Sarah," is an oil on canvas masterpiece that captures the essence of the charismatic performer. Born as Rosine Bernard, Bernhardt rose to fame in the late 19th century as one of the most celebrated actresses of her time. Known for her fiery red hair, expressive acting, and captivating stage presence, she was often referred to as "La Divine Sarah." In this painting, Bastien-Lepage masterfully depicts Bernhardt in a profile view, with her brunette hair cascading down her shoulders and her intense gaze fixed on an unseen audience. The artist's use of rich colors and intricate brushstrokes brings the portrait to life, capturing the depth and complexity of Bernhardt's character. The painting is now a cherished piece of heritage art, housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of both Bernhardt and Bastien-Lepage, two iconic figures of the 19th century. The painting's historical significance lies not only in its portrayal of a legendary actress but also in its representation of the artistic styles and trends of the time, including the emerging Art Nouveau movement. Bastien-Lepage's "Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923)" is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of acting, art, or the cultural landscape of the 19th century. The painting continues to inspire and captivate audiences, reminding us of the power of performance and the enduring allure of the stage.
