EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph showcases the renowned French mezzo-soprano Rosine Stoltz in the role of Zayda from Gaetano Donizetti's opera "Dom Sebastien" at the Theatre de l'Opéra in Paris during the 1843 season. The illustration, created by Victor Dollet, was published in the prestigious "Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris" in 1844. Rosine Stoltz (1817-1894) was a celebrated singer of her time, known for her powerful and expressive voice. In the opera "Dom Sebastien," she portrayed the character Zayda, a confident and passionate gypsy, who plays a crucial role in the plot. The lithograph beautifully captures Stoltz's dramatic flair and theatricality as she performs in the final act of the opera. The intricate details of her elaborate gypsy costume, designed by Alexandre Lacauchie and Louis Lasalle, are brought to life in this stunning illustration. The rich colors and textures of the handcolouring technique add depth and dimension to the image, making it a true work of art. This lithograph is a testament to the talent and artistry of Rosine Stoltz, as well as the collaborative efforts of the creative team behind the production of "Dom Sebastien" at the Theatre de l'Opéra in Paris during the mid-19th century. It offers a glimpse into the world of opera during this period and the importance of visual art in documenting and celebrating the performances of renowned singers like Rosine Stoltz.
