The play, written by Anicet Bourgeois and Dennery, was a popular success during this period. Lemaitre's portrayal of Georges Maurice, a character known for his passionate and impulsive nature, is captured in this illustration by Alexandre Lacauchie, as part of Victor Dollet's Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris. The image shows Georges Maurice in the final act of the play, with a determined expression on his face and a sword in hand, ready to defend his love and honor. The lithograph is a testament to the theatrical artistry of the time, with intricate details in the costumes, props, and set design. Lemaitre's performance was highly acclaimed, and this illustration provides a glimpse into the intensity and drama of his portrayal of Georges Maurice. The image is a valuable historical record of the actor's career and the theatrical productions of the mid-19th century in Paris. The Theatre de la Porte St. Martin was a significant cultural institution in Paris during this period, and the production of "La Dame de Saint-Tropez" was one of its most successful plays. Lemaitre's performance as Georges Maurice was a highlight of the production, and this illustration captures the essence of his portrayal, making it a treasured piece of theatrical history.
