EDITORS COMMENTS
Mary Augusta Yohe, an accomplished American musical theatre actress, is depicted in this photograph from the 1910s. Born in 1866, Yohe's theatrical career began in earnest during the late 1880s, gracing the stages of various theatres across the United States. Her enchanting voice and magnetic stage presence quickly endeared her to audiences, solidifying her place as a beloved performer in the entertainment industry. In an unexpected turn of events, Yohe's life took an extraordinary turn when she married Lord Francis Hope in 1894. Lord Hope was the then-owner of the infamous Hope Diamond, a large, blue, and famously unlucky gemstone that had been passed down through various European royal families since its discovery in India in the late 17th century. The Hope Diamond, originally known as the Tavernier Blue, was believed to be cursed, with tales of misfortune and tragedy following its owners throughout history. Despite the diamond's ominous reputation, Yohe and her husband chose to embrace the gemstone, incorporating it into their lives and social engagements. In this photograph, Mary Augusta Yohe exudes an aura of sophistication and elegance, her regal bearing a fitting complement to the Hope Diamond's storied history. The image serves as a testament to the allure of the stage, the captivating power of the performing arts, and the intrigue of the past.
