EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning hunting costume design for the iconic ballet Giselle, composed by Adolphe Adam in the early 19th century. Created around 1841 by Paul Lormier, this watercolor on paper artwork is housed at the Bibliotheque de l'Opera Garnier in Paris, France. The intricate details of this costume design transport us to a medieval world filled with elegance and grace. The male dancer depicted wears an exquisite ensemble, featuring a regal hat adorned with feathers that adds an air of nobility to his appearance. In one hand, he holds a spear while in the other he grasps a hunting horn, symbolizing his role as a skilled hunter. It is speculated that this costume may have been designed for either Count Albrecht or Duke Courland's character within the ballet. Regardless of its intended wearer, it exudes power and masculinity through its rich colors and meticulous craftsmanship. As we admire this painting captured by Bridgeman Images from eArchives Charmet, we are reminded of the beauty and artistry found not only in dance but also in every aspect surrounding it - including costume design. This image serves as a testament to the timeless allure of classical ballet and its ability to transport audiences into enchanting worlds where imagination knows no bounds.
