EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Penelope, Miss Lily Hanbury" showcases a stunning colour lithograph created by Charles A. Buchel in the early twentieth century. The image depicts an enchanting scene from the play "Ulysses" produced at Her Majesty's Theatre on 1 February 1902. In this illustration for Stephen Phillips' Ulysses, we see Miss Lily Hanbury portraying the character of Penelope with grace and elegance. The vibrant colours used in the lithography bring to life every intricate detail of her costume and surroundings. The photograph captures a moment during a parlour game where Penelope engages in playful banter with other characters from Homer's epic poem, Odysseus being one of them. This theatrical representation transports us back to ancient Greece as we witness these legendary figures come alive on stage. Buchel's masterful use of lithography highlights his exceptional talent as an illustrator. Each stroke and shade contributes to the overall beauty and depth of this artwork, making it truly mesmerizing. This print is not only a visual delight but also serves as a valuable historical artifact from the early twentieth century theatre scene. It allows us to appreciate both the artistry involved in stage productions during that era and the enduring allure of classical literature brought to life through performance. Through this remarkable piece, we are reminded of how art transcends time, capturing moments that continue to inspire generations long after their creation.
