EDITORS COMMENTS
Winifred Fraser as Hedvig in Henrik Ibsen's The Wild Duck: A Late Victorian Drama of Deception and Disillusionment Winifred Fraser's portrayal of Hedvig in Henrik Ibsen's The Wild Duck is a poignant and powerful depiction of a young woman's innocence and naivety, shattered by the harsh realities of life. The photograph, taken in the 1890s, captures Fraser in the midst of a pivotal moment in the play, as she clutches a gun with a determined expression on her face. Hedvig is a character in Ibsen's classic play, a young woman who has been raised in a world of lies and illusions by her father and stepmother. She idolizes her father, believing him to be a successful businessman and a hero, unaware of the truth of his past failures and deceit. When Hedvig discovers the truth, she is devastated and determined to take matters into her own hands. Fraser's performance as Hedvig was widely acclaimed by critics and audiences alike, with many praising her ability to convey the character's innocence and vulnerability. The photograph captures the intensity and depth of her portrayal, as she stands in a simple pinafore, the gun in her hand a symbol of her newfound determination and courage. The Wild Duck was first performed in 1884, and its themes of deception, disillusionment, and the consequences of living a lie resonated deeply with audiences in the late Victorian era. Fraser's portrayal of Hedvig became a defining moment in her career, and her performance continues to be celebrated by theatre historians and scholars today as a powerful and moving interpretation of a complex and compelling character.
