EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures Mrs Morrison-Bell, a prominent society figure, as the ethereal Oak Nymph in the Nymphs of the Forest tableau held at the Albert Hall in December 1917. The event was part of the Petticoat Fair and Tombola, a fundraiser organized by the Concerts at the Front Fund during the First World War. Elspeth Phelps, a leading London couturier, conceived the idea for the tableau and designed all the costumes. Phelps' creativity and artistic vision brought the magical forest to life, transforming the participants into enchanting woodland creatures. Mrs Morrison-Bell's stunning gown, designed by Phelps, embodies the essence of the Oak Nymph. The intricate detailing and the rich, earthy tones of the fabric evoke the beauty and strength of the oak tree, making Mrs Morrison-Bell an unforgettable presence in this whimsical tableau. The Nymphs of the Forest tableau was a testament to the resilience and creativity of the society women during the challenging times of the First World War. The event raised significant funds for the Concerts at the Front Fund, which provided entertainment for the troops and offered a much-needed morale boost. The photograph not only captures the beauty and elegance of the occasion but also the spirit of unity and determination that defined the era. This photograph is a captivating reminder of the power of art and creativity to bring people together and inspire hope during times of adversity. Mrs Morrison-Bell's portrayal as the Oak Nymph is a symbol of strength, beauty, and the enduring power of the human spirit.
