EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the three-act comedy-ballet "Monsieur de Pourceaugnac" by Jean Baptiste de Moliere, first performed in 1669. The character portrayed here is L Apothicaire (the Apothecary), depicted holding a large syringe. This intriguing image is taken from "Oeuvres Completes De Moliere", a collection of Moliere's complete works with an introduction by Jules Janin, published in Paris in 1868. The photograph showcases the distinctive attire and appearance of the 17th-century apothecary. Dressed in traditional clothing, including an apron and full-length costume, this French gentleman exudes an air of authority and expertise. The engraving beautifully captures his character's essence, highlighting his role as a key figure within the drama. The black-and-white color scheme adds to the vintage charm of this print, transporting viewers back to both the 19th century when it was created and the 17th century when Monsieur de Pourceaugnac was originally staged. It offers us a glimpse into historical theatrical performances and allows us to appreciate their enduring artistic value. This print serves as a testament to the timeless appeal of Moliere's work while also celebrating the artistry involved in bringing these characters to life on stage.
