EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting presence of Miss Harriett Vernon as the character Cammpi in the burlesque production of "The Prince of Japs," or "The Doomed Daimio," written by Harry Paulton and Mostyn Teddea in October 1885. The late Victorian era came alive with this exotic and humorous theatrical performance, which was a popular form of entertainment during the 1880s. Miss Vernon, an English actress and singer, gracefully embodied the role of Cammpi, a Japanese princess, donning an elaborate and intricately designed oriental costume. The parasol and tights she carries add to the allure of her character. The print captures a moment from the entr'acte, where Cammpi is seen with a principal boy, perhaps signifying a romantic connection or a playful interaction. The burlesque genre was known for its satirical and humorous take on popular stories, often incorporating music, dance, and exaggerated performances. In "The Prince of Japs," the audience would have been entertained by Miss Vernon's captivating portrayal of the doomed Daimio, a Japanese prince, and the comedic twists and turns of the production. Alfred Bryan, a renowned music hall performer, is also believed to have been involved in the production, adding to its allure and appeal. The print is a testament to the rich history of theatrical performances during the late Victorian era and the captivating roles played by talented actresses like Miss Harriett Vernon.
