Aristophanes Fraulein Lysistrata Plays
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting performance of German actress Fraulein Eibenschutz as Lysistrata in a production of Aristophanes' classic play, staged in 1917. The image transports us back in time to an era when the art of theater was in its golden age, and the stage came alive with the wit and wisdom of ancient Greek plays. Lysistrata, a comic masterpiece by Aristophanes, tells the story of a woman who leads her fellow wives in a sex strike against their husbands to bring an end to the Peloponnesian War. Fraulein Eibenschutz's portrayal of Lysistrata is both powerful and captivating, as she skillfully balances the character's determination and humor. The photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of Aristophanes' plays, which continue to be performed and studied around the world. The image also provides a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of German theater, and the contributions of its talented actors and actresses. Fraulein Eibenschutz's performance as Lysistrata was undoubtedly a highlight of the 1917 production, and this photograph serves as a lasting reminder of her artistry and the impact she had on her audience. The intricate details of her costume, the expressive gestures of her body language, and the intensity in her eyes all contribute to a sense of timelessness that transcends the boundaries of history and culture. This photograph is not only a valuable historical document, but also a source of inspiration for contemporary theater artists and audiences alike, who continue to be captivated by the stories and characters of Aristophanes and the enduring power of live performance.
