It was initially called ''[[Le Festin à Ferrare]]'' ("the feast at Ferrara") and was written in July of 1832, possibly being altered slightly before the production. The play was first performed at the Théâtre de la Porte-Saint-Martin on 2 February, 1833. The text was published in Paris by Eugène Renduel, 1833.
