EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured lithograph captures the essence of spring as embodied by a graceful woman in an intricately designed costume for a masquerade ball. The costume, created by the renowned designer M. Robin, features vibrant hues of green, pink, and yellow, symbolizing the blossoming of nature during the season. The woman's attire includes elements of the flora and fauna of spring, such as marguerite daisies, lilies, and bees. The woman's elaborate headdress is adorned with a playful comic opera scene, featuring characters such as Lombre, a frog prince, and Martinet, a sprightly bird. The imperial de Lopera Comique and Chatiniere, two popular theaters in Paris during the 1880s, are also depicted in the scene. The woman's role as a singer, dancer, or actress on the stage is suggested by the theatrical setting. The lithograph, published by Hautecoeur Freres in Paris, showcases the woman's star quality and her ability to captivate the audience with her performance. The handcoloured details add depth and texture to the image, making it a true work of art. This beautiful print is a testament to the creativity and craftsmanship of the late 19th century, and a reminder of the enchantment and wonder of the masquerade ball.
