EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Jean Baptiste Joseph Grard as Taher in Gulistan, ou le Hulla de Samarcande" This handcoloured lithograph showcases the renowned French opera singer, Jean Baptiste Joseph Grard, in the title role of Taher from the opera "Gulistan, ou le Hulla de Samarcande" by Nicolas Dalayrac. The production took place at the Theatre de l'Opéra-Comique in Paris during the year 1844. Jean Baptiste Joseph Grard (1815-1890) was a celebrated baritone singer of the Romantic era, known for his powerful voice and expressive performances. In this image, he is depicted in the character of Taher, a Persian king from the opera, which was first performed in 1771. The illustration was created by Alexandre Lacauchie and published in Victor Dollet's Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris in 1845. The lithograph is a meticulous reproduction of Lacauchie's original illustration, which captures the opulence and grandeur of the opera production. Taher is shown wearing a resplendent costume adorned with intricate gold embroidery, signifying his regal status. He wears a turban, a traditional headpiece worn by Persian kings, and holds a scepter in one hand, symbolizing his power and authority. The background of the image is filled with exotic elements, such as palm trees, oriental carpets, and ornate columns, further emphasizing the Eastern setting of the opera. The lithograph is a testament to the rich history of opera in Paris during the 19th century and the exceptional talent of Jean Baptiste Joseph Grard as a performer. It also highlights the intricate details and artistry involved in the production of opera costumes during this period.
