Mlle. Eleonore, the renowned French actress, gracefully embodies the character of Floretta in the comedic play "Le Belvedere" by Rene Charles Guilbert de Pixerecourt. This handcoloured lithograph, created by F. Noel after an illustration by Alexandre-Marie Colin, offers a glimpse into the theatrical world of the 19th century. In this exquisite portrayal, Mlle. Eleonore's expressive eyes and delicate features convey the innocence and charm of Floretta. Her elegant costume, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, perfectly complements the playful nature of the character. The lush greenery and picturesque setting of the Belvedere estate serve as a beautiful backdrop, further emphasizing the enchanting allure of the scene. "Le Belvedere," a production of the Ambigu Comique theatre company, was first performed in Paris in 1823. The play, a popular success, showcased Mlle. Eleonore's exceptional talent and captivated audiences with its wit and charm. This stunning lithograph, a testament to the theatrical artistry of the time, continues to preserve the memory of her remarkable performance as Floretta. Alexandre-Marie Colin's illustration, expertly rendered by F. Noel, offers a rare glimpse into the world of 19th-century French theatre and the captivating performances of its most celebrated actresses. This exquisite piece of art not only showcases the beauty and grace of Mlle. Eleonore as Floretta but also serves as a reminder of the enduring power of the stage to transport and enchant audiences.
