EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Temple Bell, an actress who rose to prominence in the 1920s jazz age, during her run in the play "Almond Eye" at the prestigious New Scala Theatre in London. Bell's magnetic stage presence and unique charm made her a sensation among audiences, particularly during her lively dance numbers. The 1920s, also known as the roaring twenties, was a time of cultural revolution, marked by the emergence of jazz music and dance. This era is beautifully encapsulated in this image, with Bell's expressive eyes, beaded headpiece, and flowing dress, all reminiscent of the flapper style that defined the decade. The New Scala Theatre was a hub of artistic innovation and creativity, and Bell's performance in "Almond Eye" was no exception. This portrait, taken in 1924, is a testament to the actress's talent and the vibrant world of the London stage during this iconic period in history.
