EDITORS COMMENTS
This black-and-white photograph captures the renowned Shakespearean actor, Henry Ainley, in the role of Feyda from the play "Reparation," which was performed at the St. James Theatre in London during the 1910s. The production was a translation by Mr. and Mrs. Aylmer Maude of Leo Tolstoy's "The Living Corpse," a powerful and thought-provoking work that resonated with audiences of the time. Henry Ainley, with his expressive face and distinctive beard, commands the stage with an intensity that draws the viewer in. His performance as Feyda was highly acclaimed, and this image serves as a testament to his exceptional talent. The St. James Theatre, located on King Street in the heart of London, was a hub of cultural activity during this era, and the theatre's grandeur is reflected in the elegant setting of this photograph. The translation of "The Living Corpse" by Mr. and Mrs. Aylmer Maude brought Tolstoy's Russian masterpiece to life for English audiences, and the collaboration between the theatre, the translators, and the talented cast, including Henry Ainley, resulted in a theatrical experience that left a lasting impact on those who attended. This photograph, with its sepia tones and evocative atmosphere, transports us back to a bygone era of live theatre and artistic innovation. It is a reminder of the power of the stage to captivate, inspire, and provoke thought, and of the enduring legacy of the great actors and works that have shaped our cultural heritage.
