EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in 1922, we are transported back to the variety artist benevolent institution at Twickenham. The central figure of the image is Mr R H Gillespie, a distinguished gentleman surrounded by his loving family. Standing proudly beside him is his beautiful wife, radiating elegance and grace. Their young son stands close by, looking up to his father with admiration. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the picture, emphasizing the significance of this moment captured in history. Alfieri's skillful composition highlights not only the individuals but also their connection as a family unit. This portrait exudes an air of sophistication and charm that was characteristic of the 1920s era. The fashion choices reflect the trends of that time period - from Mrs Gillespie's stylish attire to Mr Gillespie's dapper suit. As actors themselves, it is evident that both Mr Gillespie and his brother have a strong presence on stage. Perhaps they were renowned performers within Europeana during this golden age of entertainment. Alfieri's photography allows us to glimpse into their world - one filled with passion for their craft and love for each other. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been intertwined with family bonds throughout history. This print captures a moment frozen in time, inviting us to appreciate not just its visual beauty but also its historical significance within the realm of performing arts.
