1599 Admire Apprehensively Ayli Celia Orlando Plays Produced Rosalind Shakespeare Wrestler
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled 'Orlando: Orlando, Wrestler - Orlando looks apprehensively at the wrestler, while Rosalind and Celia admire him,' is a fascinating glimpse into the world of Shakespearean theatre during the late 16th century. The photograph, produced by Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back to the year 1599, where the enchanting tale of 'As You Like It' was first brought to life on the Elizabethan stage. At the heart of the scene, we find the gallant Orlando (played by an unidentified actor), locked in a fierce wrestling match. His intense focus and apprehension are palpable as he strains against his opponent, unaware of the admiring gazes of the two women at the edge of the stage. Rosalind, played by the talented actress Celia, watches with a mixture of fascination and delight, while her companion, played by Rosalind, offers a supportive and approving smile. This photograph not only provides a glimpse into the theatrical production but also offers a glimpse into the societal norms and expectations of the time. The portrayal of strong, independent women, such as Rosalind, who are not only allowed but encouraged to express their admiration for a man's physical prowess, is a testament to the progressive nature of Shakespeare's works. The intricate details of the costumes, the authentic setting, and the passionate performances of the actors transport us to a time when theatre was not just a form of entertainment but a reflection of the society and its values. This photograph is a reminder of the enduring power of Shakespeare's works and the magic they continue to weave, long after the final curtain call.
