EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the inimitable Ellen Terry in the role of Mistress Page from Shakespeare's beloved comedy, The Merry Wives of Windsor. Taken in 1906, this image showcases Terry's exceptional talent and charisma as she brings the irrepressible character to life. Dressed in a fanciful Elizabethan costume designed by Percy Anderson, Terry's Mistress Page exudes a sense of mischief and playfulness that is emblematic of the comic spirit of the play. As one of the most renowned Shakespearean actresses of her time, Terry's ability to breathe new life into classic roles was unparalleled. In The Merry Wives of Windsor, she shared the stage with her real-life husband, Henry Irving, who played the role of Falstaff. The photograph captures a moment of camaraderie and shared delight between the two actors, adding an extra layer of intrigue to their already storied professional and personal relationship. The theatrical setting of this image, with its dimly lit stage and evocative props, transports us back to an era of live theatre that was both historic and magical. The Edwardian era, in which this photograph was taken, was a time of great innovation and experimentation in the world of theatre, and Terry was at the forefront of this artistic movement. Her portrayal of Mistress Page in The Merry Wives of Windsor remains a testament to her enduring legacy as a comic actress and a cultural icon. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse into the world of Shakespearean theatre during the early 1900s and the remarkable career of one of its most beloved and iconic performers.
