EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "TheAtreuse" and dating back to circa 1901, showcases the allure and passion of a dedicated actress in the midst of her theatrical preparations. The elegant figure, adorned in ornate attire and a striking hat, is intently focused on applying her makeup at a beautifully appointed dressing table. The room is filled with the remnants of a theatrical performance, including a stack of scripts and a mirror reflecting the image of a framed portrait of a man, suggesting the presence of a devoted partner or admirer. The atmosphere is further enriched by the presence of a man, casually leaning against the backrest of TheAtreuse's chair. His relaxed demeanor and attentive gaze convey a deep appreciation for the woman and her craft. The man's presence adds an element of intimacy and support, emphasizing the importance of the relationships that nurture the artistic journey of a theatre artist. This illustration, a stunning creation from the esteemed Les Maitres de la Caricature collection, was originally published in the June issue of Albert Guillaume's album. The meticulous detail and vibrant colors bring the scene to life, transporting us to an era when the magic of the theatre was a cherished experience for audiences and artists alike.
