OriginalSet design for an early performance of Giuseppe Verdi's Otello in Paris.
Reason
I like this design because it reminds me of stages I've acted on. It mixes practicality with attractiveness, and thus can illustrate not only the opera, but set design itself. Also, it's a stage design for a Victorian opera performance that we have in enough detail that we could reconstruct it today. That's actually really awesome. I went with the wider design, though I can prove an alt (from Gallica - they have a zoomed-in photo) if desired. They have a LOT of photos of this.
