EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Robert Is Encouraged by Bertram and the Ghosts of the Nuns to Take the Magic Branch" takes us on a journey into a scene from an opera performance. Created by an unknown European School artist in the 19th century, this artwork showcases a pivotal moment in Giacomo Meyerbeer's famous opera, "Robert le Diable". The image transports us to a ruined abbey where Robert, the protagonist, finds himself surrounded by ethereal ghosts of nuns. The atmosphere is mysterious and haunting as these spectral figures encourage him to take hold of a magical branch. The staging is meticulously detailed with tombs and graves adding to the eerie ambiance. Intriguingly, we see Bertram, one of the central characters in the opera, standing alongside Robert amidst this supernatural spectacle. His presence suggests that he may play a significant role in guiding or manipulating our hero's fate. The composition exudes drama and tension as we witness Robert grappling with his decision while being observed by chorus members who are positioned at various levels within the crypt-like setting. This chromolitho print captures both the visual grandeur and emotional intensity that characterizes operatic performances. It serves as a reminder of how art can transport us into fantastical worlds filled with complex characters and gripping narratives.
