EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous theatrical performance that took place at Windsor Castle in 1893. Renowned actors Henry Irving and Ellen Terry are seen here, portraying the characters of Thomas Becket and Rosamund respectively, in Alfred Lord Tennyson's play "Becket". The grandeur of the occasion is further enhanced by the presence of Queen Victoria herself, who watched this remarkable production on 18 March. The image transports us back to a time when live performances were highly esteemed forms of entertainment. It showcases the talent and dedication of these two legendary actors as they bring their characters to life on stage. Their expressions convey deep emotion, capturing the intensity and drama of the scene. Windsor Castle provides an impressive backdrop for this historic event, its imposing fortifications serving as a reminder of Britain's rich heritage. The photograph itself is taken from "The Illustrated London News Record", which documented significant moments during Queen Victoria's reign. As we admire this snapshot from over a century ago, it serves as a testament to the enduring power of art and theater. Through their craft, Irving and Terry captivated audiences then just as they continue to captivate us today with their extraordinary talents.
