EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph showcases Mezzo Soprano Rosine Stoltz in the title role of Marie in the pastiche opera "Robert Bruce" by Gioachino Rossini. Performed at the Academie Royale de Musique in Paris during 1846, this production marked a significant moment in the illustrious career of Stoltz. Rossini, a renowned Italian composer, created "Robert Bruce" as a tribute to the Scottish hero, King Robert the Bruce. The opera is a pastiche, meaning it includes music from various sources, including Rossini's earlier works. In this image, Stoltz is depicted as Marie, a character from Rossini's opera "Le Comte Ory." She is shown wearing a stunning costume, complete with a long, flowing red gown, a white fur mantle, and a headdress adorned with feathers. In her hand, she holds a scot dagger, adding to the dramatic flair of the scene. The illustration was created by Alexandre Lacauchie and published in Victor Dollet's "Galerie Dramatique: Costumes des Theatres de Paris." Lacauchie's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate design of Stoltz's costume and the lifelike quality of her expression. Stoltz's portrayal of Marie in "Robert Bruce" was undoubtedly a highlight of the production. Her powerful mezzo-soprano voice and captivating stage presence left a lasting impression on audiences, solidifying her reputation as one of the most talented singers of her time. This beautiful lithograph offers a glimpse into the world of 19th-century opera and the extraordinary talent of Rosine Stoltz as Marie in "Robert Bruce.
