Fanny Durand as Toinette in Madame Bugolin: A Captivating Portrayal of Comedy and Drama in 19th Century French Theater This exquisitely hand-colored lithograph captures the enchanting performance of Fanny Durand in the role of Toinette in the Vaudeville production of Madame Bugolin, staged in Paris during 1845. The image is an illustration by Alexandre Lacauchie from Victor Dollet's Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris. Fanny Durand (1817-1877) was a renowned French actress, celebrated for her versatility and charm on the stage. In this production of Madame Bugolin, she embodied the character of Toinette, a lively and spirited servant, who added a touch of comedy to the drama. The play, written by Louis-Francois-Soumet and Louis-Charles Caigniez, was a popular success during the 1840s. The story revolves around the titular character, Madame Bugolin, and her attempts to secure a wealthy husband for her daughter, while dealing with her own romantic entanglements. Toinette, as a loyal and devoted servant, plays a pivotal role in the plot, providing comic relief and advancing the story. The intricately detailed costume design in this lithograph reflects the opulence and elegance of the 19th century French theater. The rich colors and textures bring the image to life, transporting us back to the time when Fanny Durand graced the stage as Toinette in Madame Bugolin. This image serves as a testament to the enduring allure of theater and the remarkable talent of Fanny Durand.
