EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon, titled "Gilbert, Sullivan, Stephens, and Solomon: We never speak as we pass by," dates back to 1882 and was created by the renowned illustrator Terry Parker. The image depicts a lively scene on the streets of London during the Victorian era, where the celebrated partnership of W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan, the creators of the popular Savoy Operas, are shown deliberately ignoring their rivals, Henry Pottinger Stephens and Edward Solomon, as they pass each other by. Gilbert, the acclaimed librettist, and Sullivan, the accomplished composer, are both depicted in top hats and bowlers, their monocles peeking out from beneath the brims. The pair, known for their groundbreaking collaborations, appear confident and unbothered, their focus on their own creative pursuits. In contrast, Stephens and Solomon, also seen wearing top hats and bowlers, are shown looking dejected and crestfallen, their attempts at rivalry and competition seemingly futile. The cartoon captures the spirit of the time, with its depiction of the intense artistic rivalry between the two pairs and their differing levels of success. This intriguing snapshot of history offers a glimpse into the world of Victorian theatre, where creativity, ambition, and rivalry intertwined in the pursuit of artistic excellence. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of Gilbert and Sullivan and their lasting impact on the world of music and theatre.
