EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph showcases the renowned French tenor, Toussaint-Eugène-Ernest Mocker, in the role of Biron in the comic opera "Les Mousquetaires de la Reine" (The Musketeers of the Queen) by Fromental Halevy. Performed at the Theatre Royal de l'Opéra Comique in Paris during 1846, this production was a major success, and Mocker's portrayal of Biron was particularly acclaimed. The image, taken from Victor Dollet's "Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Théâtres de Paris," was created by the skilled illustrator Alexandre Lacauchie. Mocker's elegant and sophisticated appearance as Biron is beautifully captured in this illustration, with his refined attire and expressive facial features conveying the character's charm and charisma. The intricate details of the costume, the rich colors, and the meticulous shading all contribute to the overall allure and authenticity of the print. "Les Mousquetaires de la Reine" is an operatic adaptation of Alexandre Dumas' famous novel "The Three Musketeers," and Halevy's score is filled with memorable arias and ensembles. Mocker's performance as Biron would have undoubtedly showcased his exceptional vocal abilities, as well as his dramatic and comedic talents. The tenor's career spanned over three decades, and he was known for his versatility and ability to excel in various operatic genres. This exquisite lithograph is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the time, providing a glimpse into the world of French opera during the mid-19th century. It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Mocker's career and his contribution to the rich history of French operatic tradition.
