EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature depicts the English singer and actress, Florence St. John, in the role of Girola from the comic opera "Manteaux Noirs" by P. Bucalossi, performed at the Avenue Theatre in London during 1882. The enchanting image captures the essence of the Victorian era, with Florence's demure and coy demeanor on full display. Her beautiful, expressive face is framed by an elaborate wig, while she playfully holds a fan against her chest. The intricate details of her costume, complete with polka-dot spots, add to the whimsical charm of the scene. Florence St. John was known for her artless and innocent stage presence, making this caricature a fitting representation of her unique charm and talent. The era's theatrical traditions are beautifully encapsulated in this image, providing a glimpse into the world of 1880s theater and the captivating performances of its leading ladies. This caricature by Terry Parker, held in the Mary Evans Picture Library, serves as a testament to the enduring allure of the Victorian stage and the remarkable women who graced it.
