1879 Engraved Jeanne Pictured Samary
EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraved portrait captures the captivating beauty and grace of Jeanne Samary, a renowned French actress of the late 19th century. The image was created in June of 1879, during her tenure with the prestigious Comédie-Française theatre company. At the age of 21, Samary had already made a significant impact on the Parisian stage with her compelling performances. Born in 1858 in Lyon, France, Samary began her acting career at a young age, training at the Conservatoire National Supérieur d'Art Dramatique. Her talent was soon recognized, and she was invited to join the Comédie-Française in 1878. In the following years, she would become one of the company's most beloved and celebrated performers. This portrait, produced by ILN (Illustrated London News), offers a glimpse into the historical significance of Samary's career. The image was imported from Mary Evans Prints Online and is a testament to the enduring allure of the theatre world during this period. The intricate engraving technique brings out the fine details of Samary's features, from her expressive eyes to the delicate curves of her neckline. The portrait also serves as a reminder of the rich history of French theatre and the extraordinary talents that graced its stages. Samary's career spanned several decades, and she continued to captivate audiences with her performances until her retirement in 1914. Today, she remains an important figure in the annals of French theatre history, and this portrait stands as a lasting tribute to her artistry and beauty.
