Edgar is an opera in three acts by Giacomo Puccini to an Italian libretto by Ferdinando Fontana, freely based on the play in verse La Coupe et les lèvres by Alfred de Musset. It premiered at La Scala in Milan in 1889 and was repeatedly revised until 1905, but Puccini did not regard it as a success, describing it as "warmed-up soup". The opera is still occasionally performed, including a 2005 recording by the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia conducted by Alberto Veronesi and featuring Plácido Domingo. This undated set design for act 3 of Edgar, from the archives of the music publisher Casa Ricordi, was created by Giuseppe Palanti with pencil and tempera on paper. It depicts an outdoor glade near Courtray in Flanders, the main setting of the opera.
