Mlle. Angelina Grave as Lea in La Juive de Constantine, 1846: A Stunning Portrayal of Passion and Tragedy This handcoloured lithograph, created by Theophile Gaultier and Noel Parfait in 1846, immortalizes the renowned French actress Mlle. Angelina Grave in her iconic role as Lea in La Juive de Constantine at the Theatre de la Porte St. Martin. The image, based on an illustration by Alexandre Lacauchie from Victor Dollets Galerie Dramatique, showcases the depth and emotion of Grave's performance, which left audiences in awe during its premiere. La Juive de Constantine, a powerful and tragic play by Eugène Scribe and Michel Carré, tells the story of Lea, a Jewish woman who is torn between her love for a Christian man, Raoul, and her unwavering loyalty to her faith. The play explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the complexities of religious and social prejudice. In this image, Mlle. Angelina Grave's expressive face and dramatic pose convey the intensity of Lea's emotions. Her flowing red dress, adorned with intricate gold detailing, adds to the grandeur and opulence of the production. The rich colors and intricate details of the lithograph further emphasize the theatricality and artistry of the performance. Mlle. Angelina Grave's portrayal of Lea was celebrated for its authenticity and depth, and this lithograph serves as a testament to her exceptional talent and the enduring impact of her performance. The image remains a fascinating glimpse into the world of 19th-century French theatre and the art of acting during this period.
