EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic and talented English actress, Dame Flora Robson, in the midst of a dramatic performance on the silver screen in 1937. With a cigarette delicately poised between her fingers, Robson exudes an air of intense concentration and raw emotion, fully immersed in her role. Born in London in 1902, Robson's career spanned over five decades and encompassed both the stage and screen. She began her acting career in the early 1920s and quickly rose to prominence in British theatre, earning critical acclaim for her powerful and versatile performances. In the 1930s, Robson made the transition to film, and her magnetic screen presence soon caught the attention of Hollywood. She appeared in a number of high-profile productions, including "Julius Caesar" (1937), in which this photograph was taken, and "Anna Karenina" (1935). Robson's talent was not limited to drama, however. She also excelled in comedic roles, such as in "The Wicked Lady" (1945), and even lent her voice to animated films, including "The Adventures of Robin Hood" (1938). Throughout her illustrious career, Robson received numerous accolades, including a BAFTA Film Award and a Tony Award. In 1953, she was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) for her services to the arts. This photograph is a testament to Robson's unwavering dedication to her craft and her ability to captivate audiences with her magnetic presence, both on stage and on screen.
