EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the enigmatic charm of Charles Gustave Auguste Le Bargy (1858-1936), a renowned member of the Comédie-Française, the prestigious French national theatre company. Painted by renowned artist Theobald Chartran (1843-1907) around 1887, this oil on wood masterpiece showcases Le Bargy in his stage costume, exuding confidence and charisma. The monochromatic palette of black and white adds a sense of timeless elegance and drama, transporting us back to the 19th century Parisian stage. Le Bargy's direct gaze and slight smile invite us into his world, as if sharing a secret with us. His impeccable attire, consisting of a tailored coat, dress shirt, and hat, epitomizes the fashionable apparel of the era. The portrait's intricate details, from the textured fabric of his coat to the subtle reflections in his hat, provide a glimpse into the world of French theatre during this period. As a member of the Comédie-Française, Le Bargy was a staple of French entertainment, gracing the stage with his talent and captivating audiences. This portrait, now housed in the Musée Carnavalet in Paris, serves as a testament to his legacy and the rich history of French theatre. The painting's enduring appeal lies in its ability to transport us to a bygone era, allowing us to witness the passion and artistry of a truly remarkable thespian.
