EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1926 takes us back to the vibrant world of Broadway at the Adelphi Theatre in London. The drama 'Broadway', written by Philip Dunning and George Abbott, comes alive through this programme cover. The artwork, created by E P Kinsella, features a dancing girl adorned in a grass skirt, flower necklace, bracelets, and anklets. In the background, we see gangsters firing their guns against a backdrop of towering skyscrapers under the night sky. Transporting us to an era known for its roaring twenties and golden age of entertainment, this image captures the essence of cabaret and music hall culture. The colorful attire worn by the dancers adds a touch of vibrancy to this scene from early twentieth-century London. The presence of skyscrapers symbolizes progress and modernity while also highlighting the grandeur of city life during that time. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are reminded not only of the beauty found within theatrical performances but also how they reflect society's aspirations. With its rich history and cultural significance, this image serves as a window into an era where women took center stage as performers on Broadway. It is a testament to their talent and resilience in breaking barriers within an industry dominated by men. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece from Fine Art Finder with great care so that future generations can appreciate both its artistic value and historical importance.
