The Countess de Segur, born Céline Emilia Seurre (1873-1966), Cécile Sorel was one of the most widely respected actresses of the French theater during the early 20th century. She gained her title through marriage, but her fame through her abilities. This wonderful Reutlinger image was taken circa 1900, just a couple of years after Mlle. Sorel first debuted on the stage at the Odeon Theater. She is said to have performed in the tradition of that first lady of theater Sarah Bernhardt. What a gorgeous headdress. This image is so like something Alphonse Mucha would have been inspired by for one of his wonderful Art Nouveau pieces.
