Imagerie d’Épinal is a renowned printmaking workshop/design studio in France that has produced a vast array of popular, brightly colored prints since its founding in 1796. Their subjects range from fictional characters and exotic animals to depictions of common trades and historical events. These distinctive prints, characterized by their bold colors and simple, direct style, have become synonymous with ‘Imagerie d’Épinal’ and have achieved widespread fame throughout Europe.
Drawing inspiration from the vast archives of Imagerie d’Épinal, which he had the privilege of exploring, Gianpaolo Pagni composed this striking and unexpected theater scene.
