Léon Melchissèdec (1843-1925) and Speranza Engalli as, respectively, S.te Croix and Meala in Victor Massé's "Paul et Virginie". This is one of the very many photos made in the Atelier Nadar on the occasion of the creation of this title, at the Théâtre Lyrique in November 1876. Melchissèdec sang at the Paris Opéra from 1879 to 1891, and again from 1905 to 1912.

The Russian-born mezzo-soprano Speranza Engalli (b. 1848; d. ?) made her début in 1875 as Maddalena in Rigoletto, was to have a relatively short but brilliant career, later appearing at the Théâtre-Italien and the Opéra-Comique, as Carmen and as Eros in Psyché by Ambroise Thomas (1878), then at the Paris Opéra (Palais Garnier) as Amneris in Verdi’s Aida (1882). After her success as Marpha, she received high acclaim as the slave Méala in Victor Massé’s three-act opera Paul et Virginie (libretto by Michel Carré and Jules Barbier, based on the famous work of the same name by Bernardin de Saint-Pierre), when it was premièred at the Théâtre National Lyrique on 15 November 1876. Speranza Engalli appears among the musical personalities mentioned by Marcel Proust in À la recherche du temps perdu (Sodome et Gomorrhe).
