Ariane is an opera in five acts by Jules Massenet to a French-language libretto by Catulle Mendès. Based on the tale of Ariadne in Greek mythology, it was first performed at the Palais Garnier in Paris on 31 October 1906, with Lucienne Bréval in the title role. One critic noted Ariane to be one of the most "Wagnerian" of Massenet's operas. This poster was designed in 1906 by the French painter Albert Maignan to advertise the opera's premiere.
