Caption

Scene from "I Puritani", at Her Majesty's Theatre - Lablache and Fornasari, 1845. London stage production of an opera by Vincenzo Bellini. 'The characters of the two sturdy Puritans, Giorgio and Riccardo, with their martial ardour, their stern fanaticism, only softened in both by their affection for the daughter of the elder of them, are most dramatically elicited in the splendid duet "Suoni la tromba," while the picturesque and appropriate costume, the dignified and expressive gestures, and the imposing figures of [Luigi] Lablache and [Luciano] Fornasari, heighten admirably the whole effect'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
