EDITORS COMMENTS
This stage design is a testament to the artistic collaboration between the renowned Italian composer Gaetano Donizetti and the skilled scenic painter Domenico Ferri for the opera "Marino Faliero," first performed in 1835. The image, held in the esteemed collection of the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, offers a glimpse into the theatrical world of 19th-century Italy. The color lithograph, created by Ferri, depicts an intricately designed set for the climactic scene of the opera. Marino Faliero, the Venetian Doge, stands at the center, surrounded by his loyal followers, as they plot against their enemies. The grandeur of the Doge's throne, adorned with gold and red velvet, contrasts with the ominous, dark background, filled with ominous shadows and ominous clouds. The attention to detail in the design is evident in the ornate costumes of the characters, the intricate patterns on the floor, and the lifelike portrayal of the actors' expressions. The use of color, particularly the contrast between the warm, rich tones of the throne and the cool, dark tones of the background, adds depth and drama to the scene. This stage design is a prime example of the theatrical scenic painting of the time, showcasing the artistic talent and creativity of both Donizetti and Ferri. The collaboration between the composer and the scenic painter was essential in bringing the opera to life, and this design serves as a visual representation of their collective vision. The image remains a valuable historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the world of 19th-century Italian opera and the artistic collaborations that shaped it.
