EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the talented American actress, Mary Anderson, in her role as Perdita in William Shakespeare's "The Winter's Tale". Taken at the Lyceum Theatre in London back in 1887, this portrait captures the essence of Anderson's performance during that era. The photogravure technique used to create this image adds a touch of elegance and depth to the overall composition. In this studio shot, Mary Anderson is seen sitting gracefully with her knees hugged close to her chest. Her expression exudes both vulnerability and strength, perfectly embodying the character of Perdita. As one of America's most renowned actresses at that time, Anderson effortlessly captivated audiences with her remarkable talent and stage presence. This photograph not only serves as a historical artifact from the late 19th century but also represents an important moment in theatrical history. It symbolizes the cultural exchange between America and England during that period when American actors were gaining recognition on international stages. Mary Anderson's portrayal of Perdita remains etched in our memories even today. Her ability to bring Shakespearean characters to life continues to inspire generations of performers around the world. This print is a testament to Anderson's contribution to both American culture and theater arts as a whole.
