EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the dramatic moment from Charles Gounod's opera "Faust," performed at the Prince's Palace in Monte Carlo in 1880. The production starred the renowned French tenor Jean-Baptiste Faure as Faust and the Italian baritone Victor Capoul as Mephistopheles, with the beautiful French soprano Emma Calvé as Marguerite. Gounod's "Faust," based on the classic Faust legend, premiered in Paris in 1859 and quickly became one of the most popular operas of the 19th century. The opera tells the story of Faust, a learned professor who sells his soul to the devil in exchange for youth and love. The opera's dramatic score, filled with memorable arias and ensembles, perfectly captures the themes of love, temptation, and redemption. In this photograph, Faust, portrayed by Faure, is seen in a moment of despair, surrounded by the dark figures of Mephistopheles and his companions. The stage is set with ominous lighting and intricate period costumes, transporting the viewer back to the opulent world of Monte Carlo's Prince's Palace Theatre. The image offers a glimpse into the rich history of opera and the captivating performances that have enthralled audiences for generations. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of Gounod's "Faust" and the unforgettable performances of its stars, Faure, Carvalho, and Faure. It serves as a reminder of the magic and emotion that opera can evoke, and the timeless appeal of this classic work of art.
