EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Christmas Entertainments" transports us back to the vibrant and lively atmosphere of the Adelphi Theatre in London during the festive season of 1897. The illustration, created by Henry Charles Seppings Wright, captures a scene from the popular play "Black-Eyed Susan" that was being performed at the time. The image depicts a bustling ship's forecastle transformed into a stage set, where actors and actresses bring their characters to life. Miss Millward takes center stage as Black-Eyed Susan herself, while an admiral and Captain Crosstree engage in animated conversation nearby. The audience is captivated by this thrilling tale unfolding before their eyes. Intricate details such as the public house backdrop and Jack Ashore add depth to this enchanting scene. The talented cast includes Mr. Charles Fulton and Mr. Luigi Lablache, who undoubtedly brought their expertise to enhance this theatrical experience. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's collection, we are reminded of the magic that theater brings during Christmas time – transporting audiences into different worlds filled with drama, laughter, and emotion. This lithograph serves as a timeless reminder of how entertainment has always been an integral part of our holiday celebrations throughout history.
