EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the dashing and swashbuckling English actor-manager, Lewis Waller, in the midst of a thrilling performance as D'Artagnan in The Three Musketeers during the Victor Fair in 1904. Waller, born William Waller Lewis, was a renowned figure in the late 19th and early 20th century London theatre scene, known for his charisma and mastery of the sword. In this image, Waller is depicted in the height of action, his eyes focused intently on his opponent as he brandishes a menacing epee in one hand and a dagger in the other. The intricate details of his period costume, complete with a plumed hat and ornate waistcoat, add to the historical authenticity of the scene. Waller's confident and commanding presence is palpable, making it easy to imagine the roar of the audience as he delivers a powerful line or executes a daring swordplay move. The Victor Fair, also known as the Victoriana Exhibition, was a popular annual event held in London from 1898 to 1905. It showcased the arts, literature, and culture of the Victorian era, and provided a platform for performers like Waller to showcase their talents and connect with their audiences. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when live theatre was a central part of entertainment and the swashbuckling adventures of The Three Musketeers were a source of excitement and wonder. Overall, this photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of historical dramas and the magnetic stage presence of Lewis Waller, who brought D'Artagnan to life in a way that captivated audiences over a century ago.
