EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite costume worn by Miss Georges, also known as Marguerite Josephine Weimer, in her portrayal of Lucrece in Victor Hugo's renowned play "Lucrece Borgia". The photograph captures a moment from the performance that took place at the Theatre of the Door Saint Martin in Paris during February 1833. The intricate details of Miss Georges' costume are truly remarkable. Designed by herself or possibly Marguerite Josephine Weimer, this ensemble perfectly embodies the essence of Lucrece's character. The French School's decorative arts expertise is evident in every stitch and embellishment. Lucrece Borgia was a complex and controversial figure from history, and Victor Hugo skillfully brought her story to life through his writing. Miss Georges' portrayal adds another layer of depth to this iconic character, showcasing her talent as a comedian on stage. This print not only captures an extraordinary moment in theatrical history but also serves as a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship involved in creating such elaborate costumes. It offers us a glimpse into the world of 19th-century French theatre and reminds us of the enduring power of storytelling through performance. With its rich historical context and artistic beauty, this image from Fine Art Finder transports us back to an era where passion for both fashion and drama converged on stage with breathtaking results.
