EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Night at the Opera: A Caricature of Cavaliere F Castellano of the Grand Opera Company at the Theatre Royal in Halifax, Drawn by Caruso the Great Tenor of Dublin in 1909" This print depicts Cavaliere F Castellano, the renowned Italian operatic baritone, in a humorous caricature during his performance at the Theatre Royal in Halifax, England, in 1909. The image was skillfully drawn by the famous tenor, Enrico Caruso, during his time in Dublin. The caricature captures Cavaliere Castellano's grandeur and larger-than-life presence on stage. Dressed in his operatic attire, complete with a flowing cape and a crown atop his head, the caricature highlights Castellano's plump and obese figure, adding to the comedic effect. The classical music notes surrounding him further emphasize his connection to the operatic world. The Theatre Royal in Halifax, an Edwardian-era venue, was a popular destination for touring opera companies during the early 1900s. Cavaliere Castellano's visit to the theatre was undoubtedly a significant event for the local community, and Caruso's caricature serves as a testament to the excitement and appreciation for the arts during this era. The intricate details in the print, from Castellano's regal attire to the ornate theatre setting, transport us back to the 1909 and offer a glimpse into the world of grand opera during the Edwardian period. This print is a must-have for any collector of historical theatre memorabilia, classical music history, or those with an appreciation for the arts and humor.
