1894 Actresses Hanbury Hilda Lily Pads Shoulder Sisters
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the elegant and theatrical spirit of Misses Lily and Hilda Hanbury, two sisters who graced the Victorian stage with their talent and charm. The image, taken in 1894, showcases Lily in a stunning, intricately designed costume, complete with a voluminous shoulder pad that was popular during the era. Her sister Hilda, equally enchanting, is seen in a simpler yet equally beautiful dress, both sisters exuding an air of sophistication and confidence. The Hanbury sisters were renowned for their acting abilities and made a name for themselves in the London theatre scene. Lily, the elder of the two, began her acting career in the late 1880s and quickly rose to fame with her impressive performances in various productions. Hilda, on the other hand, joined her sister on stage a few years later and also gained critical acclaim for her acting skills. The sisters' love for the theatre was evident in their dedication to their craft, and they were known for their ability to captivate audiences with their performances. Their costumes, like the one Lily is wearing in this photograph, were an essential part of their on-stage presence and helped bring their characters to life. This photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era, a time when the theatre was the center of entertainment and the Hanbury sisters were among the brightest stars. It serves as a reminder of their enduring legacy and the impact they had on the world of theatre during the late Victorian period.
