EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegant Mrs Bernard Beere, a prominent British stage actress of the late 19th century. The image captures her in a seated pose, exuding grace and poise that were characteristic of the belle epoque era. Mrs Bernard Beere, born Fanny Mary Whitehead, was known for her exceptional talent which took her to various stages across London, Paris, Australia, India, and New York. She held the prestigious position of Manager at the Opera Comique in Paris from 1887 to 1889. One of her notable performances was in Oscar Wilde's play "A Woman of No Importance" where she portrayed the role of Mrs Arbuthnot. This particular photograph immortalizes her as she appeared during the premiere in London in 1893. The photographer behind this timeless portrait remains anonymous but is recognized as a talented British artist from the 19th century. Prismatic Pictures has preserved this piece within their private collection. As we gaze upon this stunning image today, we are transported back to an era defined by its opulence and sophistication. It serves as a testament to Mrs Bernard Beere's contribution to theater history and reminds us of the enduring power that photography holds in capturing moments frozen forever in time.
