Musée Grévin : principaux tableaux du Musée, reproduit par la glyptographie Silvestre & Cie, Paris
A c.1890 Paris catalogue of tableaux from the Musée Grévin, a waxworks museum, reproduced by glyptographie photographic engraving for visitors and collectors. The staged scenes show theatrical sets with costumed figures in period dress: a murder in a tiled room, a backstage opera corridor, and interiors with panelled doors. A designer might take their stagey lighting, tableau composition and period costume staging as reference for dramatic set design.
