EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the elegant and regal presence of Genevieve Ward as the Duchess of Cheviot in Clifford Mills' comedic play, "The Basker," first produced at St. James Theatre in London in 1916. The title of the play refers to a lazy or indolent person who enjoys an easy life, and the Duchess, with her aristocratic air and refined demeanor, embodies the very essence of this character. Dressed in the finest attire of the era, Genevieve Ward exudes an air of sophistication and grace as she sits comfortably in her chair, seemingly untouched by the cares of the world. The Duchess' serene expression and the warm lighting of the stage add to the sense of tranquility and leisure that pervades the scene. The photograph offers a glimpse into the world of early 20th-century theatre and the captivating performances that brought audiences to their feet during the 1910s. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the enduring power of live entertainment and the timeless appeal of a well-crafted play.
