Actor Manager Lewis Manager Poles Punt Punting Punts Setting Unusual Waller Theatrical
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of leisure and bonding between English actor-manager, Lewis Waller (William Waller Lewis) (1860-1915), and his young daughter. The image, taken circa 1908, presents an unusual setting as the father and child are seen punting together on a tranquil river. Dressed in elegant attire, Lewis Waller skillfully maneuvers the punt, while his daughter, dressed in a pretty dress and holding a pole, gazes intently at the water. The serene scene offers a rare glimpse into the personal life of this renowned theatrical figure, known for his successful career on the English stage. The image transports us back to the early 1900s, a time when the simple pleasures of a day on the river provided a welcome respite from the demands of the theatre. This photograph is a testament to the enduring bond between a father and daughter and the joy that can be found in the simplest of activities.
