EXTRACT FROM BOOK: "Carzou Engraver and Lithographer II"
Here then is the adorable "Giselle", "the tender-hearted heroine who dies for love of a handsome prince and whose ghost comes, bearing no malice, to save him from the terrifying goblins of the forests of romanticized Germany". These were the words of an eminent Parisian critic in raptures over the decor and the costumes for Giselle that Carzou had designed for the Opera House in Paris. The artist has taken up the theme of Giselle once again in this superb piece of work. The beautiful young girl is free and does not belong to the highly evocative countryside that surrounds her. She is lost in her secret thoughts. This is indeed one of Carzou's most delightful compositions.

EXTRAIT DU LIVRE: "Carzou Graveur et Lithographe II"
La voici donc cette adorable "Giselle", "tendre héroïne qui meurt d'amour pour le beau prince, et dont le fantôme vient, sans rancune, la sauver des Willis, ces créatures terribles des forêts de l'Allemagne romantique". Ainsi s'exprimait, en 1954, un éminent critique parisien enthousiasmé par les décors et les costumes de Giselles que Carzou venait d'exécuter pour l'Opéra. L'artiste dans cette superbe planche, a repris le personnage. La jeune fille, étrangère au paysage si évocateur qui l'entoure, fixée dans une pensée secrète, libre et belle, est une des plus ravissantes créations de Carzou.
