THE THREE GRACES, 1872. CREATOR: JEAN-BAPTISTE CARPEAUX.

The Three Graces, 1872. The Graces, often three in number, were goddesses who represented such qualities as charm, beauty, and creativity. This small bronze is based on a monumental sculpture Carpeaux designed for the exterior of the Palais Garnier, home of the Paris Opera. The bolts on the figures’ limbs indicate that this was a bronze caster’s model, which could be assembled to produce multiple versions of the original. Such models were not intended for display and this one has a roughly finished surface that bears the artist’s tool marks. The Three Graces, 1872. Creator: Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux.

HERR WACHTEL, THE NEW TENOR SINGER AT THE ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA, 1864. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.

Herr Wachtel, the new tenor singer at the Royal Italian Opera, 1864. Engraving from a photograph by Messrs. Mayall. 'Herr Wachtel...has gained so much favour with the audience and the critics by his performance of the parts of Manrico in "II Trovatore," and Arnoldo in "Guglielmo Tell," during the present season of the Royal Italian Opera...He certainly possesses a voice of extraordinary compass and power. Though he may not be esteemed the rival of Tamberlik in his high chest notes, the effect of his ut de poitrine, or C in alt, has never failed to astonish and delight the audience in Covent-Garden. As an actor, it has been remarked that his only fault is an excess of vehemence, which time and study will doubtless correct. His pronunciation of the Italian language is more pure than that which most other Germans at the Opera have been able to attain in the course of a much longer practice. As it seems generally expected that Herr Wachtel's future career will prove an important one in the annals of our most fashionable entertainment, we have thought it worth while to engrave this likeness of him...which gives a good notion of his personal appearance. He is a native of Berlin'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864. Herr Wachtel, the new tenor singer at the Royal Italian Opera, 1864. Creator: Unknown. (KEYSTONE/HERITAGE IMAGES/THE PRINT COLLECTOR)

THE RHINE: THE LURLEIBERG, 1864. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.

The Rhine: the Lurleiberg, 1864. 'The very name of "the Rhine" has a magic sound, expressive of all that is lovely and romantic. It is, par excellence, the river of Europe, along whose banks are gathered the most cherished traditions of the past and no little of our apprehensions for the future. Like a monarch among waters, it speeds on its way to the ocean through a proud line of feudal towers and vine-clad mountains, enriched by its multitude of tributary streams...for tourists, who come to enjoy the beauties of its scenery, the Rhine practically means that part of the river which lies between Cologne and Mayence. Not only is it here most picturesque, but every ruined tower, island, and rock has its history and legend, and every mile of either shore had a name and importance in the days of old'.
