Reason: A very nice coloured lithograph from the opera's première.

Creator: Pierre-Auguste Lamy (? seems highly likely, given we know he signed his works A. Lamy - see his category on Commons and the A's and Y's in a couple of his known signatures are very similar. Just slightly different enough to leave doubt); restored by Adam Cuerden

Support Does the time on the clock (five to seven) give any clue if it is the prologue or epilogue? Belle (talk) 08:19, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- As I understand it, the clock gives some evidence for it being prologue, but it's not definite. I'm going with what I was told at WT:OPERA#Les contes d'Hoffmann Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 09:20, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
