EDITORS COMMENTS
Mado Minty, the enigmatic and captivating performer, graces the stage of The London Opera House in 1913, donning an intricately designed theatrical spider costume for the production of "Come Over Here." With her arms outstretched, Mado appears to be inviting the audience into her mesmerizing world of web and fly, as an acrobatic spider ready to pounce. The theatrical production of the 1910s was a sensation, pushing the boundaries of artistic expression and fashion. But Mado's allure did not end when the curtain closed. In her private life, she was just as intriguing. This photograph, taken by the renowned Illustrated London News Ltd, captures Mado in a more casual moment, away from the spotlight. Her unique style and confidence are evident, even in her everyday attire. Mado Minty was a trailblazer in the world of performing arts, combining elements of dance, acrobatics, and theatrical flair to create unforgettable performances. Her spider costume in "Come Over Here" was a testament to her innovative spirit and willingness to take risks. The photograph serves as a reminder of Mado's enduring legacy, which continues to inspire artists and fashion enthusiasts alike. The image of Mado in her spider costume is a striking example of the avant-garde fashion of the 1910s, which embraced the unusual and the exotic. Her costume, with its intricate web design and spider motifs, was a bold statement that challenged the norms of the time. This photograph, preserved by Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and daring spirit of Mado Minty.
