- Reason
- A rather good hand-coloured lithograph of a notable singer in the première production of an opera by a major opera composer. While not Verdi's most famous, it's his first opera in French, albeit revised of an Italian opera. Arguably, without Jérusalem, we wouldn't have Les vêpres siciliennes.

- Support - Better EV (or perhaps placement) in Duprez. Restoration, as usual, excellent.--Godot13 (talk) 09:24, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
