EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases four enchanting fairy costumes designed for the production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at the Princes Theatre in Manchester, between 1896 and 1903. Created by Wilhelm C. , a talented costume designer of his time, these whimsical outfits transport us to Shakespeare's magical world. Each costume is meticulously crafted with intricate details that bring out the essence of these mythical creatures. From Peaseblossom's delicate floral ensemble to Cobweb's ethereal web-inspired attire, every garment reflects the creativity and imagination behind this theatrical masterpiece. The vibrant mustardseed outfit exudes an aura of playfulness, while Moth's costume captures a sense of grace and elegance. These costumes not only serve as visual delights but also evoke a sense of wonder and curiosity among both children and adults alike. With their presence on stage, these fairies add depth and charm to Shakespeare's timeless tale. Their portrayal embodies the spirit of mischief, magic, and transformation that lies at the heart of "A Midsummer Night’s Dream". Preserved by the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, this photograph allows us to appreciate Wilhelm C. 's artistic brilliance even after more than a century has passed. It serves as a testament to how art can transcend time and continue inspiring generations with its beauty and ingenuity.
