EDITORS COMMENTS
This set of six prints depicts the renowned Italian playwright Carlo Goldoni (1707-1793), who revolutionized Italian comedy in the late 18th century. Goldoni's work, influenced by the French playwright Molière, marked a significant departure from the older, chaotic style of commedia dell'arte. The first print showcases Goldoni himself, pen in hand, symbolizing his innovative contributions to the world of theater. The remaining five prints illustrate scenes from some of his most celebrated plays: "Belisario," "L'Avaro," "Il Geloso," "Rusteghi," and "Perugia." These plays, set in various Italian locales, introduced more realistic and nuanced characters, as well as coherent plots and moral themes. Goldoni's reforms brought Italian comedy closer to the European mainstream, surpassing the older, improvisational style of commedia dell'arte. His work paved the way for a new era of theater, characterized by greater depth, complexity, and social commentary. The prints capture the essence of Goldoni's groundbreaking plays, offering a glimpse into the rich world of Italian theater during the late Baroque period. Each scene is filled with vibrant colors, intricate details, and expressive characters, inviting viewers to explore the timeless stories and themes that continue to resonate with audiences today.
