Eugène Cicéri's "Design for a Stage Set at the Opéra, Paris: Balustrade" is a pencil drawing created between 1830 and 1890. This design depicts a balustrade, a decorative railing found in architecture, which was likely intended for a stage set at the prestigious Paris Opera. Cicéri, renowned for his work in stage design, expertly captured the intricate details of the balustrade, showcasing his keen eye for architectural elements. The drawing is now part of the collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
