EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored lithograph showcases Marie Jacqueline Levesque in the role of Milady Adermale from the Ambigu Comique production of "Le Remords," or "Remorse," in 1824. The image is based on an illustration by Alexandre-Marie Colin, as published in the collection "Portraits d'Acteurs et d'Actrices dans différents rôles" by F. Noel in Paris in 1825. Marie Jacqueline Levesque (1799-1866) was a renowned French actress of the Romantic era, celebrated for her versatility and emotional depth in various theatrical genres. In this portrait, she masterfully embodies the complex character of Milady Adermale, a woman consumed by remorse and regret. The intricate details of her elaborate stage costume, with its rich fabrics and ornate accessories, further enhance the allure and sophistication of the character. The lithograph, produced by F. Noel, captures the essence of Levesque's performance, allowing viewers to appreciate the nuances of her acting abilities. The hand-coloring adds a layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning testament to the artistry of the time. This portrait offers a glimpse into the world of 19th-century French theater and the extraordinary talents of Marie Jacqueline Levesque, whose performances left a lasting impact on audiences and continue to inspire admiration to this day.
