Casanova

Maurice Rostand's play in three acts,
Panorama Dramatique: Casanova, performed
at the Bouffes-Parisiens in 1919, compresses
in small compass the outstanding incidents
in the life of Casanova. The costume and set
designs were the work of Art Deco legend
George Barbier.
Between the end of World
War I and the late 1920s much of Barbier's
time was claimed by theatrical design,
beginning with Rostand's Casanova.
Barbier's designs were originally published in
1924 as a set of 24 pochoir colour plates, now
one of his rarest and most sought after works:
they are here reprinted for the first time.
