EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Woman at the Theatre - le rire du 12 mars 1898" by Lucien Metivet takes us back to the elegance and charm of late 19th-century France. The print showcases a beautifully dressed woman, adorned with a necklace, bracelet, and flower in her hair, attending a theater performance. The spectator's attire is meticulously detailed, highlighting the fashion trends of that era. Her gloved hand delicately holds an intricately designed fan while she gazes attentively at the stage. The artist's skillful use of lines and shading brings out every nuance of her expression, capturing both her excitement for the event and her refined demeanor. Metivet's caricature-like style adds an element of playfulness to this otherwise sophisticated scene. It is as if he invites us to join this woman in experiencing the joyous atmosphere within the theater walls on that memorable evening in March 1898. This enchanting engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into French society during this period. It reminds us of how art can transport us through time and space, allowing us to immerse ourselves in different eras and cultures. Displayed here as part of Stefano Bianchetti's private collection, this print preserves an important piece of history while showcasing Metivet's talent as an engraver and his ability to capture human emotions through his artistry.
