EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the 19th century, capturing a scene from the renowned play "Sardanapalus" at the Alexandra Theatre in Liverpool. The image, part of a private collection, showcases an exquisite moment from this theatrical masterpiece. The grandeur of the Alexandra Theatre is evident as we witness the elaborate set design and ornate costumes that transport us to ancient Babylon. The attention to detail is remarkable, with every aspect meticulously crafted by the English School artists who brought this scene to life. The play itself tells the story of Sardanapalus, an Assyrian king known for his decadence and indulgence. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are drawn into a world filled with drama and intrigue. The characters on stage exude passion and emotion as they perform their roles amidst opulent surroundings. Published in The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News in October 1875, this engraving captures a pivotal moment in theatrical history. It serves as a testament to both the talent of those involved in its creation and the enduring power of live performance. As we admire this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its ability to transport us through time. This image reminds us of our shared human fascination with storytelling and our desire to be transported into different worlds through theater's magic.
