EDITORS COMMENTS
Gaby Deslys, the celebrated French actress and music hall artiste, is seen here at the port of Boulogne, France in 1915, preparing to embark on a journey to England. Known for her captivating stage presence and magnetic personality, Deslys was a popular figure in European entertainment circles. In this photograph, she is shown presenting her papers to the authorities before boarding the ship that would carry her across the English Channel. Deslys was on her way to London to star in Rosy Rapture, a burlesque written by the renowned Scottish playwright J.M. Barrie. Barrie, best known for his creation of Peter Pan, penned this risqué production specifically for Deslys, who was then at the height of her career. The show was a huge success, and Deslys' performances were met with rave reviews from critics and audiences alike. This portrait captures a moment in time as the charismatic performer sets sail for her next adventure, leaving behind the shores of France for the bright lights of the London stage. The image serves as a reminder of the rich history of entertainment and the fascinating lives of the artists who brought joy and wonder to audiences during a time of great change and upheaval. Gaby Deslys' legacy continues to inspire and captivate audiences, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who left an indelible mark on the world of theatre and music hall.
