Laura Johnston as Rosalind in As You Like It (circa 1890s): A Captivating Portrait of a Shakespearean Actress in Full Costume This enchanting photograph captures the captivating Laura Johnston in the role of Rosalind from Shakespeare's beloved comedy, As You Like It. Dating back to the late 1890s, this image offers a glimpse into the world of 19th-century theatre and the art of cross-dressing in Shakespearean productions. Johnston's expressive face and poised demeanor radiate the intelligence, wit, and charm of Rosalind, a character known for her quick thinking and resilience. Her striking costume, complete with fitted tunic, tights, boots, and a spear, highlights the androgynous nature of the role. The addition of a hat adorned with a feather and a painted backdrop of forested trees and a rustic bridge adds to the whimsical allure of the scene. As a woman in a male-dominated industry, Johnston's talent and dedication to her craft were celebrated during the late Victorian era. Her ability to embody the complexities of Rosalind, a woman who disguises herself as a man to win back her love, showcases her versatility and skill as an actress. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of Shakespeare's works and the artistry of the late 19th-century theatre. It invites us to appreciate the rich history of live entertainment and the captivating performances that continue to inspire and delight audiences today.
