EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the magical world of Arnold de Biere's "The Sculptor's Vision: An Illusion of the Beautiful Story of Leda and the Swan." This promotional postcard, hailing from the roaring twenties, invites you to experience the wonder of this masterpiece that once graced the stages of London's Coliseum Theatre on December 23, 1919. As described in a programme from that era, "De Biere's Masterpiece" was a mesmerizing illusion that brought the ancient Greek myth of Leda and the Swan to life. The image on this postcard offers a tantalizing glimpse into the enchanting performance, inviting you to hold it up to a very bright light to reveal the sculptor's hidden vision. The reverse side of the postcard, with its intriguing instruction, adds an element of mystery and excitement to the already alluring image. The tour of this illusion continued to the Hippodrome in Boscombe on January 12, 1920. Arnold de Biere, a renowned sculptor and illusionist of the time, was known for his extraordinary ability to create illusions that captivated audiences. His work represented the pinnacle of popular entertainment during the 1920s, a time when theatres and pantomimes (pantos) thrived. This postcard is a testament to the magic and wonder that once filled the stages of the past, offering a glimpse into the enchanting world of illusion and artistry that captivated audiences during the 1920s.
