EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of theatre characters in the Middle Ages, specifically from Terence's comedy. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this engraving showcases a variety of intriguing figures that would have graced the stage during the 9th century. The composition is rich with detail and nuance, revealing a glimpse into an era where entertainment was brought to life through performance. Each character exudes their own unique personality and charm, as if frozen in time for us to marvel at centuries later. Leonard de Selva expertly captured this moment in history, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistry of these characters but also their significance within medieval culture. The medium age setting adds an air of mystique and intrigue to the scene, transporting viewers back to a time when storytelling held immense power. As we study each figure closely, it becomes evident that they represent archetypes commonly found in theatrical productions during this period. From jesters and clowns to noble knights and damsels in distress, every character plays a vital role in bringing stories alive on stage. This remarkable print serves as both a testament to Leonard de Selva's talent as well as a window into our collective past. It reminds us of how theatre has evolved over centuries while still retaining its ability to captivate audiences with its timeless tales.
