Le juif polonais
Voting period ends on 28 Jun 2019  at 05:12:04 (UTC)
 * Reason:I'm kind of fascinated by this opera; a sort of French Tell-Tale Heart, with a ghost onstage. Haven't found half so much about it as I'd like yet, though. Well, one day I'll get to see it. This also continues my quest to not have to go back to and finish bloody  La Navarraise , a poster that has a nightmare-amount of fluff all over it.
 * Articles in which this image appears:Le Juif Polonais, Camille Erlanger There are no secret messages in my posts
 * FP category for this image:WP:FP/THEATRE
 * Creator:Henri C. R. Presseq, restored by Adam Cuerden who probably works himself too hard. Seriously, do you see the size of these posters?

 * Support - I feel like there might be another operatic version of this as well - can't for the life of me remember who wrote it. I'll have to check one of my sources when I'm back from away. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 05:25, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
 * The article mentions one by Karel Weis. Given the paucity of recordings of any version of this story, I couldn't say, though. Eh, well. I like to mix obscure and well-known. More educational that way. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 6.7% of all FPs 09:23, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
 * That'll be the one, I think - David Ewen has an entry for it in his opera encyclopedia, which I have lying around here somewhere... -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 13:01, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment, - Another nice detail here is that the opera is based on a collection of stories by Erckmann-Chatrian, two of the most popular French writers of the 19th century. Their series of historical novels of the French Revolution and Napoleon are still well-worth reading and available in English translation. Geoffroi (talk) 19:08, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
 * , - another opera based on their works is Mascagni's L'amico Fritz. Though now we're venturing rather far afield... -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 19:12, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
