Marie Léonide Charvin was a French theater actress, better known by her stage name Agar. She was born in Sedan on September 18, 1832, and died on August 15, 1891, to Sidi M'Hamed in Algeria. She starred in some of the most famous French Plays of the 19the Century such as Cinna by Pierre Corneille, Athalie, Phèdre, Andromaque and Britannicus by Jean Racine and Le Passant by François Coppée. She also worked with some of the most famous actresses of their time such as Rachel Félix and Sarah Bernhardt. Upon her death Pauline Savari said "Above all in love with the great heroines, in turn Camille, Phèdre, Hermione and Emilie, she did not lavish her admirable talent in numerous and fleeting creations; but if it had only the two roles of the passer-by, that touching inspiration of François Coppée, and of the enemy mothers, the master and powerful work of Catulle Mendès! That would already be glory!" Marie Léonide Charvin is known as one of the most famous actresses of the late 19th century.
