Pierre-Cheri Lafont in the Role of Rafaello: A Visionary Artist in 19th-Century French Theatre This handcoloured lithograph showcases Pierre-Cheri Lafont (1813-1885) in the iconic role of Rafaello in the fairy spectacle "Un Conte de Fee" (A Fairy Tale) at the Theatre des Varietes in Paris, 1845. The production was directed by Leuven/Lherie, and the illustration was created by Alexandre Lacauchie for Victor Dollet's Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris. Lafont, a renowned French actor, was celebrated for his versatility and ability to embody various characters with remarkable depth and emotion. In this production, he brought the enigmatic and mischievous character of Rafaello to life, adding a touch of magic and wonder to the stage. Rafaello, a fairy godfather, is a central figure in this fairy tale, using his magical powers to help the protagonist overcome challenges and find true love. The elaborate costume, designed by Louis Lasalle, adds to the mystique and allure of the character, making Lafont's performance even more captivating. The handcoloured lithograph, an intricate and labour-intensive process, adds an extra layer of detail and vibrancy to the image, capturing the essence of the theatrical experience. The use of rich colours and intricate details in the costume design, as well as the expressive facial features of Lafont, convey the whimsy and enchantment of the fairy tale world. This image offers a glimpse into the world of 19th-century French theatre, where art, magic, and storytelling came together to transport audiences to new realms of imagination. Pierre-Cheri Lafont's performance as Rafaello in "Un Conte de Fee" was undoubtedly a memorable one, leaving a lasting impact on the theatre-going public of Paris and beyond.
