Shadows of a Great City
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Joseph Jefferson and L R Sherwell: A Theatrical Masterpiece of the Late 19th Century This photograph print, titled "Shadows of a Great City," showcases a scene from the popular and melodramatic play by Joseph Jefferson and L R Sherwell, first produced in England at the Princess's Theatre on July 14, 1887. The play later toured to the Opera House in Haverhill, New Hampshire, on October 19, 1908. On the left side of the image, we see the heroine, Nellie, rowing a boat on the river. The tranquility of the scene is in stark contrast to the sensational and heroic moment depicted on the right. In this dramatic scene from the end of Act II, the hero bravely rescues Nellie from the prison on Blackwells Island. The late 19th century was an era of popular entertainment, and "Shadows of a Great City" was no exception. This postcard, with its theatrical and evocative image, would have been a prized possession for those who attended the play or wanted to relive the experience. The heroic and heroic moments in the play would have left audiences breathless, and this photograph print captures the essence of that excitement. The Victorian era, with its intricate details and rich colors, is beautifully represented in this photograph print. The shadows cast by the city's buildings add an air of mystery and intrigue, while the water reflects the soft glow of the setting sun. This image is a testament to the power of the stage and the enduring appeal of melodrama. Whether you are a fan of the theatre, the Victorian era, or simply appreciate the beauty of a well-crafted photograph, this print is a must-have addition to your collection. It is a window into the past, a reminder of the power of storytelling, and a celebration of the heroic and heroic moments that have captivated audiences for generations.
