EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Boxing night outside a country theatre" transports us back to the late 19th century in Great Britain. Created by Arthur L. Hewlett, this print captures the festive atmosphere of Boxing Day, a day after Christmas when entertainment and merriment were at their peak. The scene unfolds outside a charming country theatre, where actors and actresses don elaborate costumes for an enchanting pantomime performance. The stage is set with vibrant colors and intricate details that bring the magic of Victorian-era theater to life. In the foreground, we see a group of dancers gracefully moving to choreography while children eagerly watch on. Their excitement is palpable as they witness this spectacle unfold before their eyes. As our gaze extends beyond the performers, we notice women dressed in elegant attire mingling with members of the audience. A drummer adds rhythm to the festivities, enhancing the overall ambiance. This lithograph not only offers a glimpse into British history but also highlights cultural exchanges between Germany and Great Britain during this time period. It serves as a testament to how art can transcend borders and capture moments that resonate across generations. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from its private collection, allowing us to appreciate Hewlett's artistic talent and immerse ourselves in this delightful snapshot of entertainment in late 19th-century Europe.
