EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century Paris. Captured in 1891 by artist Henri Meyer, it depicts a scene from Richard Wagner's romantic opera Lohengrin at Place de l'Opera. The atmosphere is filled with drama and entertainment as characters dressed in elaborate costumes come to life on stage. In the foreground, we see a mounted infantryman chasing after a horse that has broken free from its reins. The panicked animal gallops through the crowded square, causing fear and chaos among the people. Women clutch their hats tightly while pointing towards the commotion, children run for safety, and men try to calm down both horses and humans alike. The night setting adds an air of mystery to this bustling scene. Gas lamps illuminate the street as people rush about in their elegant attire. The architecture of Place de l'Opera serves as a magnificent backdrop for this moment frozen in time. Henri Meyer's skillful use of color brings depth and vibrancy to this monochromatic image, allowing us to imagine the vivid hues that would have adorned these characters' costumes. As we gaze upon this extraordinary snapshot from history, we are transported back to a time when opera was not only an art form but also a spectacle that captivated audiences with its grandeur and emotion.
