About this work

This print shows Giulia Grisi in costume as Anna from Anna Bolena. It’s a full-length portrait from 1836, done by Chalon. Romanticism was the big style at the time, so the mood feels dramatic. Grisi was a famous opera singer. Anna Bolena is a tragic opera by Donizetti. That kind of stage role was perfect for Romantic taste. Look up Donizetti next.
