EDITORS COMMENTS
This costume design is a masterpiece by Jacques Drésa for the opera production of "La flûte enchantée" (The Magic Flute) by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, staged in 1922. The design depicts Papagena, a character known for her playful and enchanting nature. Drésa's interpretation of Papagena is a vision in white, with a flowing gown adorned with delicate floral motifs and a diaphanous veil. The intricate detailing on the gown and the delicate folds of the fabric suggest an ethereal and otherworldly quality, fitting for a character who is both a bird-calling priestess and a bride for Papageno. The watercolor on paper technique used by Drésa adds a sense of delicacy and finesse to the design. The use of pastel colors and soft brushstrokes create a dreamlike atmosphere, further emphasizing the magical and fantastical elements of the opera. The theatrical scenic painting style of the design is characteristic of the early 20th century, with a focus on intricate detail and a sense of theatricality. This design is a testament to Drésa's exceptional talent as a costume designer and his ability to bring the magical world of Mozart's opera to life on the stage. The Bibliotheque Nationale de France is fortunate to have this exquisite piece in its collection, preserving it for future generations to appreciate the artistry and creativity of the past.
