EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back in time to witness a scene from the Westminster Play, Terence's "Andria". The image, now part of a private collection, showcases the remarkable talent of an English School artist. In this particular moment captured on paper, we find ourselves amidst an intense and dramatic situation. Mysis and Davus are seen placing Glycerium's baby at Simos' door. The emotions portrayed by the characters are palpable; their expressions convey both urgency and apprehension. The attention to detail in this engraving is truly remarkable. Every costume worn by the actors is meticulously depicted, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistry but also gain insight into the fashion trends of that era. Published as an illustration for The Graphic on December 18th, 1880, this print offers a glimpse into one of Terence's most famous plays. It serves as a reminder of how theater has always been able to transport audiences through time and space. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can still marvel at this historical artwork today. As we gaze upon it, let our imaginations run wild with thoughts of what it must have been like to witness such a powerful performance unfold before our eyes.
