The illustration of Clytemnestra is remarkable for its attention to detail, accurately reflecting the attire that might have been worn in ancient Greek theatre, thereby providing a valuable resource for historians, costume designers, and theatre practitioners interested in the authenticity of period costumes. Chery's depiction goes beyond mere artistic representation; it serves as a scholarly endeavor to reconstruct the visual culture of ancient Greek theatre, contributing to a deeper understanding of historical performance practices.
Philippe Chery's 'Research on the Costumes and Theatre of All Nations' is celebrated for its encyclopedic approach and the breadth of its coverage, encompassing not only ancient civilizations like Greece but also a wide range of cultures and periods.
