EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Sketches from 'Faust' at the Lyceum Theatre" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the world of performing arts. The illustration, originally featured in The Illustrated London News on January 23,1886, captures a scene filled with drama and intrigue. The image showcases a group of talented actors and actresses portraying characters from the renowned play "Faust". In the foreground stands Mephistopheles, portrayed by an actor whose intensity is palpable. His presence exudes both charm and menace as he captivates our attention. To his side stands Miss Ellen Terry, a prominent actress of her time. Her portrayal of Margaret adds depth and emotion to this theatrical masterpiece. Behind them lies a picturesque garden porch where other actors are seen engaging in suggestive conversations that hint at hidden desires and secrets. The detailed sketch transports us to London's Lyceum Theatre, where this production came alive under the direction of Mr. Henry Irving. With its intricate lines and shading techniques, this engraving beautifully captures every nuance of expression on each character's face. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can't help but be drawn into the enchanting world created by these talented performers. It serves as a reminder that even after all these years, theater continues to captivate audiences with its ability to transport us to different times and places through artistry and storytelling.
