This image showcases a dancer in an intricately detailed Breton costume, taken from the Cogniard brothers' production of "La Biche au Bois" at the Theatre da la Porte St. Martin in Paris, 1845. The fairy vaudeville, which premiered on January 27, 1845, was based on a popular French folktale and featured a cast of talented performers. The dancer in this photograph is depicted in the traditional Breton attire, which includes a long, flowing skirt made of wool or linen, a fitted bodice, and a wide-brimmed hat adorned with ribbons and flowers. The intricate embroidery and beadwork on the costume add to its ethereal beauty and authenticity. The photograph is a handcoloured lithograph, taken from an illustration by Alexandre Lacauchie for Victor Dollet's "Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris," published in 1845. Lacauchie's illustration captures the essence of the Breton costume, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, making it a valuable historical record of theatrical costumes of the time. The Cogniard brothers were known for their innovative and visually stunning productions, and "La Biche au Bois" was no exception. The combination of beautiful costumes, enchanting music, and captivating performances made it a popular success among Parisian audiences. This photograph provides a glimpse into the world of 19th-century French theatre and the intricate details of the costumes that brought the stories to life. The Breton costume depicted here is a testament to the artistry and creativity of the performers and designers of the time, and continues to inspire and captivate audiences today.
