Mlle. Emilie Honorine Guyon, a renowned French actress of the 19th century, is captured in this stunning handcoloured lithograph as she portrays the character Elisabeth in the play "Le Miracle des Roses" by Antony Beraud and Hippolyte Hostein at the Ambigu Comique theatre in Paris, 1844. The illustration, created by Alexandre Lacauchie, was published in Victor Dollet's Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris in 1845. Elisabeth, a pious and virtuous character, is depicted in the image wearing a simple yet elegant dress adorned with roses, symbolizing her devotion and purity. Mlle. Guyon's expressive face and gestures convey the intensity and emotion of her role, captivating the audience's attention. Le Miracle des Roses was a popular play during the Romantic era, and Mlle. Guyon's performance as Elisabeth was highly acclaimed by critics and audiences alike. The handcoloured lithograph serves as a testament to her talent and the impact she had on French theatre during this period. The intricate details of the costume, the realistic portrayal of Mlle. Guyon, and the overall aesthetic of the image make it a valuable historical document and an impressive work of art. This lithograph offers a glimpse into the world of 19th-century French theatre and the remarkable career of Mlle. Emilie Honorine Guyon.
