EDITORS COMMENTS
This color print captures the mesmerizing French baritone Victor Maurel in his role as Iago, from Giuseppe Verdi's renowned opera Otello. Taken by a talented 19th-century French photographer, this image showcases Maurel's exceptional talent and stage presence. In this striking portrait, Maurel embodies the complex character of Iago with intensity and depth. His reflection in the mirror adds an intriguing layer to the composition, hinting at the duality of his persona. Dressed in an exquisite costume that exudes elegance and grandeur, he epitomizes the essence of Paris Opera's enchanting performances. The photograph was featured in Le Figaro Illustre magazine back in February 1895 as part of an article highlighting prominent singers at the Paris Opera. This snapshot not only immortalizes Maurel's remarkable portrayal but also serves as a testament to his contribution to French culture and music during that era. With meticulous attention to detail and masterful use of light and shadow, this image transports viewers into Maurel's world within the dressing room. It offers a glimpse into both his artistic process and personal transformation into one of opera's most iconic villains. As we admire this timeless piece captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of Victor Maurel's enduring legacy as a celebrated baritone who brought characters like Iago from Verdi’s Otello to life on stage with unparalleled passion and skill.
