EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Falstaff Dispatches His Billet-Doux" from the Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back to the 1910 theatrical production of Shakespeare's "Henry IV, Part One" at Windsor. In this scene from Act I, Scene iii, the mischievous and roguish Sir John Falstaff (portrayed here with a twinkle in his eye and a sly smile) is seen dispatching his billet-doux, or love letters, to three unsuspecting women. The historical setting of this photograph is the iconic Globe Theatre, which was rebuilt in 1910 to commemorate the original Shakespearean playhouse. The actors, dressed in authentic Elizabethan costumes, bring to life the wit and charm of Shakespeare's masterful writing. Falstaff, a notorious liar and a master of deception, uses these letters to extract money from the gullible women under the pretense of love. As he pens the letters, he is surrounded by the merriment and camaraderie of his companions, Peto and Bardolph, who add to the jovial atmosphere of the scene. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of Shakespeare's plays and the power of live theatre to transport us to another time and place. The image captures the essence of Falstaff's roguish charm and the merriment of his companions, making it a must-have for any Shakespearean or theatrical enthusiast's collection. The intricate details of the costumes, the authentic set design, and the expressive body language of the actors make this photograph a visual feast for the eyes. This photograph is not only a historical record of a bygone era but also a reminder of the timeless appeal of Shakespeare's plays and the magic of live theatre.
