"Portrait of Mr. Melchissedec as Rigoletto in 'Rigoletto' by Verdi" is a 19th-century painting by French artist Antonin Marie Chatinière, depicting the baritone singer Mr. Melchissedec in the role of Rigoletto from Giuseppe Verdi's opera of the same name. The opera, which premiered in 1851, is one of Verdi's most celebrated works and tells the tragic story of Rigoletto, the hunchbacked court jester who seeks to protect his daughter from the licentious Duke of Mantua.

Chatinière's portrait captures the dramatic essence of the character Rigoletto, as portrayed by Mr. Melchissedec, whose full name and biographical details remain less documented in historical records. The painting is significant for its portrayal of a contemporary performer in character, offering insights into the theatrical and operatic culture of the time. It showcases the artist's skill in rendering the emotional intensity and the physical characteristics associated with the role, such as Rigoletto's distinctive costume and expressive countenance.

The work of Antonin Marie Chatinière, an artist known for his portraits and genre scenes, reflects the 19th-century French artistic milieu and the era's fascination with the performing arts. While the painting itself may not be as widely recognized as other contemporary works, it contributes to the visual history of operatic performance and the interpretation of Verdi's characters by actors of the period.

As a historical artifact, "Portrait of Mr. Melchissedec as Rigoletto in 'Rigoletto' by Verdi" serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Verdi's opera and the impact it had on artists beyond the realm of music. The painting is an example of how visual art and performance art can intersect, immortalizing a moment in the history of opera and the individuals who brought its characters to life on stage.
