The detailed illustration, created by Amedee Forestier and published in The Illustrated London News on July 19,1902, transports us to the heart of this enchanting performance. The image showcases Princess Hilda, adorned in regal attire, as she interacts with Mr. Herbert Bunning, a goldsmith who plays a significant role in the story. Surrounding them is an opulent set design that evokes the grandeur of Covent Garden's stage. As we delve into this mesmerizing scene, we are introduced to the central theme of the opera: "The Heart of Princess Osra". Through Forestier's skillful rendering and attention to detail, we can almost hear the melodic strains emanating from Mr. Anthony Hope's composition.
