EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment from the 1901 production of Twelfth Night, by William Shakespeare, at Her Majesty's Theatre in London's Haymarket. The image showcases a pivotal scene in Act III, Scene 4, where Olivia's garden comes alive with theatrical magic. Herbert Beerbohm Tree, the esteemed owner and manager of Her Majesty's Theatre, graces the stage in the role of the stuffy and self-important steward, Malvolio. With a stern expression and impeccable Victorian attire, Beerbohm Tree embodies the character's arrogance and pride, providing a perfect contrast to the lighthearted antics of the other characters. Maud Jeffries, a talented American actress, portrays the enchanting Olivia. Her ethereal beauty and poised demeanor are on full display as she gazes out at the audience from her garden, surrounded by an array of colorful flowers and lush greenery. The scene is filled with an air of romantic intrigue, as Olivia contemplates her growing affections for Duke Orsino, played by none other than Beerbohm Tree himself in an earlier scene. The photograph, taken in February 1901, offers a glimpse into the rich history of Her Majesty's Theatre and the captivating productions that have graced its stage over the years. This image serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night and the remarkable talent of its cast, led by the visionary Herbert Beerbohm Tree and the radiant Maud Jeffries.
