EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Pauline Virginie Dejazet as Indiana in Indiana and Charlemagne: A Theatrical Spectacle of the 19th Century" This handcoloured lithograph showcases the renowned French actress Pauline Virginie Dejazet in her iconic role as Indiana in the production of Indiana and Charlemagne at the Theatre des Varietes in Paris during 1846. The image, created by Dumanoir and Bayard, is an adaptation of an illustration by Alexandre Lacauchie, published in Victor Dollet's Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris. Dejazet, dressed in a stunning costume designed by Louis Lasalle, embodies the character of Indiana, a legendary heroine from the Vaudeville play. Her fiery red hair cascades down her shoulders, while her expressive eyes convey a sense of determination and strength. Indiana's elaborate costume, adorned with feathers, beads, and fringes, reflects the theatrical extravagance of the era. Charlemagne, the king, portrayed by an unidentified actor, stands beside Indiana, his regal attire contrasting with her wild appearance. The intricate details in the lithograph, from the textured fabric to the individual strands of hair, highlight the skill and artistry of the artists involved in creating this visual masterpiece. The Theatre des Varietes, known for its Vaudeville productions, was a popular venue for the Parisian elite during the mid-19th century. This image serves as a testament to the theatrical innovation and artistic excellence of the time, providing a glimpse into the world of French theatre during the 1800s. Pauline Virginie Dejazet's portrayal of Indiana in Indiana and Charlemagne was undoubtedly a memorable performance, leaving a lasting impact on the audiences of the time. This lithograph not only captures the essence of her performance but also offers a fascinating glimpse into the theatrical fashion and trends of the era.
