"Agamemnon, costume for 'Iphigenia in Aulis'" is an illustration by French artist Philippe Chéry, created as part of his work for the project "Research on the Costumes and Theatre of All Nations" in 1802. This artwork is a visual representation of the costume design for the character Agamemnon from the ancient Greek tragedy "Iphigenia in Aulis," written by the playwright Euripides. Philippe Chéry was known for his detailed studies of historical dress and theatrical costume, and his work contributed significantly to the understanding of period attire in the context of performance during the early 19th century.

The illustration is part of a larger collection that aimed to document and analyze the costumes and theatrical practices of different cultures and eras. Chéry's meticulous approach to the depiction of textiles, patterns, and accessories provides valuable insight into the visual and cultural aspects of theatrical productions of his time. His work on "Research on the Costumes and Theatre of All Nations" stands as an important historical record, reflecting both the artistic and scholarly endeavors of the Napoleonic era in France.

In the depiction of Agamemnon, Chéry would have drawn from ancient sources, artistic conventions of his time, and his own imagination to create a costume that evoked the grandeur and tragedy associated with the character, a king torn by duty and familial love. The illustration not only serves as a testament to Chéry's artistic skill but also offers a glimpse into the interpretive practices of early 19th-century European theatre, where historical accuracy was often intertwined with contemporary aesthetic sensibilities.
