EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing moment from the Oxford Historical Pageant of 1907. The scene depicted is none other than the infamous Witches Scene from Shakespeare's "Macbeth" performed before the watchful eyes of King James I. The image transports us back in time, immersing us in the rich history and grandeur of this early twentieth-century pageant. The performers, dressed as witches with their eerie costumes and haunting expressions, evoke an air of mystery and intrigue. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the excitement that must have filled the air during this remarkable event. It serves as a testament to both the enduring power of Shakespeare's works and the significance of historical pageants in celebrating cultural heritage. This photograph is not just a visual delight; it also holds historical value as it was featured in Cheney's Souvenir of The Oxford Historical Pageant, Commemoration 1907. Preserved within a private collection, its existence allows us to connect with an era long gone by. Through this image captured by an English photographer whose identity remains unknown but whose talent shines through nonetheless, we are reminded that art has no boundaries when it comes to transcending time and capturing moments that continue to inspire generations after generations.
