EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Benoit-Constant Coquelin in the iconic role of Cyrano de Bergerac during his celebrated performances in Paris, London, and America in the early 1900s. Coquelin, a renowned French actor, brought the fanciful and historical character to life with his extraordinary talent and theatrical flair. Dressed in an elaborate Edwardian costume, Coquelin dons a large, distinctive hat and a ruff collar, embodying the swashbuckling and romantic persona of Cyrano de Bergerac. The image, taken by renowned photographer Percy Anderson in 1906, captures a moment of intense concentration and passion from the actor, as if he is about to deliver one of the play's famous soliloquies. Cyrano de Bergerac, a classic tragic-comic hero, is known for his large nose, poetic eloquence, and devotion to the woman he loves, Roxane. Coquelin's portrayal of the character was highly acclaimed, and his performances were a testament to the power of language, love, and the human spirit. This illustrated print offers a glimpse into the theatrical world of the early 1900s and the captivating performances that entertained audiences across continents. The image is a reminder of the enduring appeal of Cyrano de Bergerac and the magic of live theatre.
