EDITORS COMMENTS
Madame Albani, Dame Emma Albani (1847-1930), the celebrated operatic soprano graces this elegant advertisement for Elliott and Fry, the renowned photographers of her time. The image captures Madame Albani in the height of her career at the Royal Italian Opera, Covent Garden, London, during the 1880s. The late Victorian era is reflected in the ornate, sepia-toned border of the print, which adds to the grandeur and sophistication of the advertisement. Madame Albani's striking presence is accentuated by her elegant attire and the green backdrop, which creates a beautiful contrast against her brown, flowing hair. Ernest Gye, the lessee and manager of the Royal Italian Opera, is also featured in the advertisement, further emphasizing Madame Albani's connection to this prestigious institution. The advertisement invites viewers to visit Elliott and Fry's studio to purchase a high-quality photograph of Madame Albani, allowing them to bring a piece of the operatic magic home. This photograph is not only a testament to Madame Albani's exceptional talent but also to the skill and artistry of Elliott and Fry as photographers. The advertisement encapsulates the allure and excitement of the opera world during the late Victorian era, making it a valuable historical artifact.
