EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the art of theatrical make-up, with a focus on the character Fleury. The image, taken by Cavendish Morton in 1874-1939, is part of a private collection and captures the essence of stage performance. Fleury's face is transformed through intricate make-up techniques, highlighting the power of appearance and disguise in theater. This self-portrait demonstrates the skillful craftsmanship involved in creating memorable characters for the stage. The photograph was originally used as an illustration for "The Art of Theatrical Make-up" by Cavendish Morton, published in 1909 by A&C Black. It serves as a testament to Morton's expertise and his contribution to this artistic field. Looking at this image evokes a sense of nostalgia for historical theater productions. It reminds us that throughout history, actors have relied on their ability to transform themselves physically to bring stories to life on stage. From tragedy to comedy, these characters captivate audiences with their unique appearances. This particular print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the technical aspects and artistic creativity behind theatrical make-up. As we gaze upon Fleury's visage, we are transported back in time, witnessing firsthand how makeup can shape not only an actor's appearance but also their entire performance.
