EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, taken from Charles Malos Almanach des Spectacles par K.Y.Z in 1823, showcases Jean-Baptiste Firmin in his role as "Andre" in the melodrama "Pauvre Famille" at the Theatre de l'Ambigu Comique in Paris during 1822. The melodrama, a popular theatrical genre of the time, was produced by Perrier, Dupont, Lhomme, Marie, Le Celibataire, Alexis, and Jacques Wafflard at the Odeon. Firmin's expressive face and dramatic pose convey the intensity and emotion of the character he portrays. The intricately detailed engraving captures the essence of the stage performance, with the ornate costumes, elaborate set design, and the rapt attention of the audience members in the foreground. The title of the play, "Pauvre Famille," translates to "Poor Family," suggesting a story of hardship and struggle. Melodramas were known for their heightened emotions, music, and spectacle, and this engraving provides a glimpse into the theatrical world of 19th-century France. The intricate details of the image, from the folds in Firmin's coat to the individual strands of hair on his head, showcase the skill of the engraver. This beautiful and historic image is a testament to the enduring power of live performance and the artistry of the actors and technicians of the time.
