EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting engraving titled "My first pantomime - when my grandfather took us children to Sadlers Wells, London" we are transported back in time to a cherished memory. The artist, Frederick Barnard, beautifully captures the joy and excitement of a young child's first visit to the theater. The scene depicts a bustling stage at Sadlers Wells, with actors adorned in colorful costumes captivating an eager audience. In the foreground, we see three children eagerly leaning forward in their seats, their eyes wide with anticipation. Beside them stands their loving grandfather, his face beaming with pride as he shares this magical experience with his grandchildren. This illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on December 23rd, 1876. It serves as a delightful reminder of the timeless tradition of pantomimes during the holiday season. Pantomimes were known for their lively performances filled with music, dance, comedy, and fantastical characters that entertained audiences of all ages. Barnard's attention to detail brings every element of this momentous occasion to life – from the ornate stage set design to the expressions on each character's face. This print is not just a work of art; it is a nostalgic window into childhood innocence and family bonds. As we gaze upon this image from our own modern perspective, let us appreciate the enduring magic that live theater holds and cherish those special moments shared between generations.
