About this work

Cover for Les Troyens à Carthage by Hector Berlioz from the "second version, second issue" of the vocal score; Les Troyens à Carthage is the second half of Berlioz's opera Les Troyens, and the only half put on during his lifetime. The vocal score for Les Troyens which this comes from was published in two volumes, one for each half of the opera, with each volume having an individual illustration, as well as a general illustration for Les Troyens as a whole which is exactly the same in both halves. This is the unique cover for Les Troyens à Carthage.
