George Sand CONSUELO Orphaned in Italy (Pauline Viardot) 1892 Antique Print
This is an illustration / print that has been taken from a book dated 1892 and is ready for framing. Measures approximately 11 1/2 x 9 inches. There is an image text summary on the attached rice paper.
The character of Consuelo was supposedly modeled after Louis Viardot's wife, the soprano Pauline Viardot. Pauline Viardot was a good friend of both Sand's and of her lover Frédéric Chopin.Consuelo is a Spanish girl abandoned in Italy whose voice attracts the old maestro Nicola Porpora. Through him she is presented to Count Zustiniani. The latter, after her successful début on the stage, falls in love with her, but is repulsed. When her early lover Angoletto forgets her, Consuelo is sent by Porpora to the home of a German family in Bohemia. Her entrance into this household prepares the way for the sequel, La Comtesse de Rudolstadt (1843).
