EDITORS COMMENTS
Step behind the curtains and into a world of festive enchantment with this print, 'Christmas in the drawing room, Amateur Theatricals, behind the scenes. ' Transported back to 1875, we find ourselves amidst the bustling preparations for an amateur theatrical performance. The scene is set in a grand drawing room adorned with lavish Christmas decorations that exude warmth and cheer. As we peer through the open door, glimpses of eager actors can be seen rehearsing their lines or perfecting their costumes. The air is filled with anticipation as they bring to life tales of mirth and magic. Harry Furniss masterfully captures both the excitement and chaos backstage during this joyous season. Each character seems to have a story of their own - from harlequins adjusting masks to fairies delicately arranging shimmering wings. The attention to detail is remarkable; every prop meticulously placed adds authenticity to this lively tableau. This engraving originally appeared in The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News on December 18th, sharing its holiday spirit with readers across Britain. Now preserved within a private collection, it serves as a delightful reminder of bygone Christmas traditions. As we gaze upon this image today, let us imagine ourselves transported back in time – embracing not only the beauty but also the camaraderie that comes alive when friends gather together for shared creativity during this magical season.
