OriginalAdolphe-Joseph-Louis Alizard performing in Jérusalem, from Le Charivari
Reason
A nice caricature, shows a bit about how the opera was perceived (albeit through a lens of extreme satire), and shows the notability of the performer - one who does not appear to have many other images of him available, so the caricature is a bit more vluable than it otherwise might be.
