EDITORS COMMENTS
Opera at Covent Garden, London (1913): A Timeless Classic Theatre Experience Step back in time to the enchanting world of opera at Covent Garden, London, as captured in this stunning 1913 photograph. The grand stage of the historic theatre is set for an unforgettable performance, with the orchestra pit below ready to bring the music to life. The audience, dressed in their finest attire, eagerly awaits the start of the show from their ornate boxes, their expressions filled with excitement and anticipation. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of Covent Garden, a theatre that has been a hub for musical and theatrical productions since the 17th century. The production on stage could be any number of operas, from the works of Wagner to Norse sagas and myths, transporting the audience to far-off lands and fantastical worlds. The Vikings and Norsemen, with their legendary tales of adventure and heroism, were a popular theme in operatic productions of the time. The orchestra, hidden from view, prepares to bring the music to life, their instruments poised and ready to fill the theatre with sound. The stage is set, the audience is captivated, and the anticipation builds as the overture begins. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of opera to transport us to other worlds, to move us with its music and captivate us with its stories. This photograph, by the renowned illustrator and photographer Alfredo da Anguillara, also known as 'Matania,' is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and timeless appeal of opera at Covent Garden, London.
