EDITORS COMMENTS
Madame Bras, in the role of Dame Catherine, captivates the audience in this exquisitely hand-colored lithograph from the production of "La Dame aux Belles Cousines" (The Lady with the Beautiful Cousins) at the Theatre du Vaudeville in Paris, 1823. The renowned French actress, Madame Bras, masterfully portrays the character's regal and haughty demeanor, donning an elegant ermine-trimmed velvet cape and a grand headdress adorned with pearls and feathers. The intricately detailed illustration, created by Alexandre-Marie Colin and skillfully rendered by F. Noel, captures the essence of the theatrical performance, transporting viewers back in time to the opulence of the early 19th century. Madame Bras' intense gaze and expressive body language convey the complexity of Dame Catherine's character, making this image a true testament to the artistry and talent of the actress and the artists involved. The lavish costume, the rich colors, and the meticulous attention to detail all contribute to the enduring beauty and historical significance of this image.
