François Ravel as Vol-au-vent, 1855-1859
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor painting by Alfred Jacob Miller, showcasing the American actor François Ravel in the character of Vol-au-vent. The image, created during the 1850s, is a testament to the rich heritage of American theater and the artistry of Miller. Vol-au-vent, a fictional character, was a popular pantomime figure in 19th-century American entertainment. Known for his agility and quick wit, Vol-au-vent was often depicted as a fiddler or violinist, as seen in this painting. Ravel, an accomplished actor and musician, skillfully brought this character to life on stage. Miller's painting captures Ravel in a full-length portrait, dressed in the colorful apparel of Vol-au-vent. He wears a tunic adorned with intricate patterns and tights, adding to the character's theatrical flair. In his hands, Ravel holds a fiddle, its strings taut and ready to produce music. The violin, a common musical instrument in pantomime performances, further emphasizes the character's role as an entertainer. The painting is a vibrant watercolor on cream-colored paper, with Ravel standing against a plain background. The use of white and color creates a striking contrast, drawing attention to the actor and his character. This masterpiece is now part of the permanent collection at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, and serves as a reminder of the rich and diverse cultural heritage of the United States during the nineteenth century. Alfred Jacob Miller, a renowned artist of his time, expertly captured the essence of Ravel's performance as Vol-au-vent, making this painting a valuable addition to the annals of American art and theater history.
