EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the front cover of The Graphic newspaper from Saturday, March 8,1890. Created by an unknown artist, this snapshot captures the essence of 19th-century British entertainment and fashion. The focal point of the image is Emilie Charlotte Langtry, a renowned actress known as "Jersey Lily". Dressed in an exquisite costume from Shakespeare's play "As You Like It". Langtry embodies the character of Rosalind with grace and elegance. Her attire reflects the Victorian era's penchant for intricate clothing designs and attention to detail. The photograph not only highlights Langtry's talent as a performer but also serves as a testament to her influence on literature and theater during that time. As one of Britain's most celebrated actresses, she captivated audiences with her exceptional performances. Displayed prominently on the front page of The Graphic, this portrait demonstrates how newspapers played a crucial role in disseminating information about popular culture and influential figures like Langtry. In an age before television or internet media, newspapers were essential sources for news, entertainment updates, and artistic inspiration. Preserved through time by The Print Collector collection, this historic print offers us a glimpse into the past—a reminder of both the beauty found in theatrical arts and women who made significant contributions to society during that era.
