EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the enchanting performance of French soprano Mme. Gavaudan (Alexandrine-Marie-Agathe Ducamel, 1781-1840) as she portrays the character Margot in the opera "Diable a quatre" (The Devil in Four) by Christoph Willibald Gluck. The image is taken from the prestigious "Almanach des Spectacles" (Almanac of Spectacles) published by K. et Z, Chez Janet in Paris in 1818. Mme. Gavaudan's expressive face and captivating gaze are on full display as she delivers a powerful and emotional rendition on the Parisian stage of the Opera Comique. The intricate details of her elaborate costume, complete with a flowing cape and diadem, add to the grandeur and allure of the production. Gluck's opera "Diable a quatre" premiered in 1765 and was a groundbreaking work that combined elements of both tragedy and comedy. The opera tells the story of a young woman, Margot, who is torn between her love for two men and her loyalty to her father. In this scene, Margot is seen expressing her inner turmoil and anguish, as she struggles to make a decision that will affect the rest of her life. Mme. Gavaudan's exceptional vocal abilities and dramatic acting skills made her a beloved figure in the world of French opera. Her portrayal of Margot in "Diable a quatre" was undoubtedly a highlight of her illustrious career, and this stunning engraving serves as a testament to her talent and the enduring legacy of this iconic opera production.
