Scene from Balfes new opera of "The Daughter of St
Scene from Balfes new opera of " The Daughter of St. Mark", at Drury Lane Theatre, 1844. London stage production, showing...the first scene of the second act of Mr. Balfes already popular opera...The scene is the oratory of Catarina, with a vaulted stone roof: it is divided into two compartments; in the inner one is a large centre window, opening on a balcony, and looking over the Grand Canal, with a moonlight view of Venice. A lamp suspended from the ceiling throws a dim light over the room, and the scenic effect is altogether remarkably successful. The action is at the close of the scene, at the moment that the curtain of a secret chamber on the left is undrawn, and the Assassins enter, preceded by Moncenigo.... From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol V

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from Michael William Balfe's new opera, "The Daughter of St. Mark" performed at the renowned Drury Lane Theatre in 1844. The image depicts the first scene of the second act, set in Catarina's oratory with its striking vaulted stone roof. Divided into two compartments, the inner one features a large center window that opens onto a balcony overlooking Venice's Grand Canal under moonlight. The room is dimly lit by a suspended lamp, creating an atmospheric ambiance that adds to the overall success of this scenic masterpiece. As the curtain of a secret chamber on the left is undrawn, assassins make their entrance led by Moncenigo, marking an intense moment towards the end of this dramatic scene. This engraving was originally featured in "Illustrated London News" in 1844 and showcases both male and female performers dressed in Victorian-era attire. The attention to detail is evident as each character portrays their role with melodramatic gestures and expressions. With its rich historical context and artistic composition, this print offers viewers a glimpse into 19th-century British theater culture. It serves as a testament to Balfe's popularity as an opera composer during his time while highlighting the talent and creativity involved in bringing such productions to life on stage at Drury Lane Theatre.
