EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Alfred the Great in Dramatic Representation" transports us back to a mesmerizing scene from Mr. Wilson Barrett's production of "The Christian King" at London's Adelphi Theatre on December 18th. The image captures a pivotal moment from Act IV, where Alfred finds himself amidst the Danish Camp. In this vivid illustration for The Illustrated London News, created by Allan Stewart in 1902, we witness the talented actors and actresses bringing this historical drama to life. Miss Edyth Latimer portrays Princess Zebuda with grace and elegance while Miss Lillah McCarthy embodies Elswitha's character with intensity. The attention to detail is remarkable as every element within the scene is meticulously depicted - from the elaborate costumes worn by the performers to the atmospheric setting of the Danish Camp. Through Stewart's skilled engraving technique, he manages to convey both the grandeur and tension that permeate this crucial moment in history. This lithograph serves as a testament not only to Alfred the Great's legendary status but also to theater's ability to transport audiences into different worlds and eras. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how art has always been an essential medium for storytelling throughout human history.
