EDITORS COMMENTS
This scene is taken from the 1907 production of Tom Jones, a comic opera by Edward German, based on the beloved 18th century novel by Henry Fielding. The opera, which premiered at the Her Majesty's Theatre in London, featured a libretto by Robert Courtneidge and Alexander Thompson, with lyrics by Charles Taylor. In this image, we see the moment when Tom Jones (played by Charles Hayden Coffin), the roguish hero of the story, encounters Sophia (Ruth Vincent), the object of his affections. Tom, dressed in his finest attire, gazes intently at Sophia, who appears both intrigued and alarmed by his advances. The setting, with its ornate columns and grand architecture, adds to the sense of opulence and excitement. Tom Jones, first performed in the early 1900s, was a popular success and helped to establish German as a leading figure in English opera. The production showcased the composer's talent for blending music and comedy, and the libretto and lyrics effectively brought Fielding's novel to life on the stage. This postcard, from The Michael Diamond Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a tantalizing glimpse into the world of Tom Jones and the enchanting production that brought this classic story to new audiences.
