Madame Charlotte Doche as Madame Roland in the 1843 Production of 'Madame Roland' at Théâtre du Vaudeville, Paris This handcoloured lithograph, created by Victor Dollet in 1844, depicts the renowned French actress Madame Charlotte Doche in the title role of 'Madame Roland' during a performance at Théâtre du Vaudeville in Paris. The image is based on an illustration from the esteemed 'Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Théâtres de Paris,' which showcased the most fashionable and iconic theatrical costumes of the time. Madame Roland, a play by Alexandre Lacauchie, was a popular historical drama that retold the story of Marie-Jeanne Phlipon Roland, a prominent figure during the French Revolution. Roland, who was married to a tax collector, played a significant role in the establishment of the Committee of Public Safety and was known for her strong political convictions and her unwavering support for the revolution. Madame Doche's portrayal of Madame Roland was celebrated for its intensity and authenticity. Her striking appearance in this lithograph, with her elegant yet determined expression and elaborate period costume, perfectly encapsulates the drama and intrigue of the French Revolution. The use of handcolouring adds a richness and depth to the image, making it a beautiful and captivating work of art. The theatre scene in Paris during the mid-19th century was a vibrant and exciting time, with many renowned actors and actresses gracing the stages of the city's most prestigious theatres. Madame Charlotte Doche was one of the most celebrated actresses of the era, and her performance as Madame Roland was a testament to her talent and artistry. This lithograph is a fascinating glimpse into the world of French theatre during this period and a reminder of the enduring legacy of Madame Charlotte Doche and her iconic portrayal of Madame Roland.
