It is set against the backdrop of Rome and centers around the tragic character Floria Tosca, a renowned singer, and the tumultuous events surrounding her lover Mario Cavaradossi and the politically charged atmosphere of the time. The setting reveals themes of love, jealousy, political intrigue, and betrayal. At the start of this dramatic piece, the stage is set within the church of Saint-Andréa, where Mario, a painter, is working on a canvas while conversing with his assistant Gennarino and the sacristan Eusèbe. During their dialogue, they discuss Mario's love for the beautiful Floria Tosca and reveal details about the political unrest in Rome, including the recent military victories over the French. Additionally, the introduction of Cesare Angelotti, a fugitive on the run from the authorities, sets the tone for a clash between personal relationships and political conflict.
