Commentary | Camila pretends to have stabbed herself deadly before Leonela and Lotario.
Theatrical scene, in keeping with Romanticism taste; the gestures and expressions of the three figures, although theatrical and lightly forced, are well-drawn. |
Notes | 1 - Reprint of the original lithograph (Mexico: Masse y Decaen; I. Cumplido, 1842) after Johannot's design (Paris: Dubochet, 1836-37). |
