More on the Teatro Colón from Buenos Aires


Last time I posted about the artistic beauties of the theater as a building; today I would like to share some pictures that hint at the great quality of the workshops, particularly regarding the tailoring one. First, though, a couple of pictures of the building plan as depicted on a board at the park in front of the theater.

More on locations
Next, pictures of some of the costumes in exhibition at one of the main halls:

Anne Boley, from the oper Anne Boleyn
by Donizzetti

Henry VIIIth, from the same oper

Prince Kalf, from the oper Turandot
by Puccini

Princess Turandot, from same named oper


Although the pictures are not very good -flashes were forbidden- you can still see the luxurious details in embroidery and cloth; these pieces are quite old and they aren't used any longer, they belong to the theater's Museum.
