Design for a Stage Set 1830 - 1890

This stage set design by Eugène Cicéri, a leading French designer of the 19th century, is a masterful example of theatrical design. Cicéri's sketch depicts a mountainous landscape, potentially for a dramatic production. The use of gray tones in the design suggests a dark and dramatic atmosphere, adding to the intensity of the theatrical experience. The abstract shapes and textures suggest a sense of ruggedness and grandeur, drawing the audience's attention to the play's setting.
