This is a print of a portrait of E. Masson, a French actress, dressed as Johanna van Castilië, the queen of Castile, for her role in the play Jeanne la Folle. C. Derancourt, a well-known French artist working in the 19th century, created this print after 1805. The actress is shown in a regal pose, wearing a crown and a richly embroidered gown. The portrait is a classic example of 19th-century portraiture and reflects the popularity of historical plays and theatrical performance in the period. The print captures Masson's likeness and conveys her dramatic persona. It is a valuable piece for anyone interested in 19th century theater, portraiture, and the artistic and cultural climate of the time.
