Feather Pantomime Principal Salute Saluting Scrap Scraps Tights Short
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the spirit of a young Victorian pantomime girl, proudly saluting the audience with a flourish. Dressed in the traditional attire of the time, she dons a colorful and intricately designed costume, complete with tights, a short skirt, and a high-collared blouse adorned with lace and ruffles. Her hair is styled in ringlets, framing her cherubic face. The pantomime girl, an essential character in Victorian-era theater, often played the role of the principal boy or girl in pantomimes, which were popular forms of entertainment during this period. These productions were known for their elaborate costumes, music, dance, and slapstick comedy, making them a favorite among audiences of all ages. In this photograph, the pantomime girl holds a sword in her right hand, while her left hand is raised in a graceful salute. A feathered headdress adorns her head, adding an air of mystique and allure to her appearance. The expression on her face is one of confidence and joy, as if she is relishing the moment and the connection she has made with the audience. The scraps of fabric and ribbons that can be seen in the background add to the sense of chaos and excitement that was a hallmark of pantomime performances. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian-era entertainment and the captivating performances of the pantomime girls who brought joy and wonder to audiences.
