EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the radiant beauty and charm of British actress, singer, and dancer Jessie Matthews as she poses at the Adelphi Theatre in London during her performance in Ever Green in 1931. Dressed in a stylish swimsuit, Jessie exudes confidence and allure as she playfully interacts with her faithful dalmatian companion. The dalmatian, with its distinctive spotted coat and bright, expressive eyes, adds a delightful touch of whimsy to the image. Jessie Matthews, born in 1907, was a prominent figure in the entertainment industry during the 1930s. Known for her captivating stage presence and enchanting voice, she quickly rose to fame in musical comedies and revues. Ever Green, a popular production of the time, showcased her versatility as an entertainer, allowing her to showcase her acting, singing, and dancing abilities. The photograph, taken in 1931, captures a moment of respite amidst the hustle and bustle of her busy career. The dalmatian, a beloved breed known for its loyalty and energy, adds a sense of warmth and companionship to the scene. The image is a testament to the enduring bond between Jessie and her canine companion, as well as her ability to bring joy and laughter to audiences during the thirties, a decade marked by economic uncertainty and social change. This portrait, a treasure from the 1930s, offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable entertainer and her faithful companion, immortalizing a moment of playfulness and joy in the annals of entertainment history.
