EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting presence of Lillah McCarthy as she embodies the ethereal role of a nymph in Elspeth Phelps' Nymphs of Forest tableau, performed at the Petticoat Lane Fair at the Albert Hall in 1917. The tableau was a significant fundraising event for the Concerts at the Front Fund, an initiative aimed at providing entertainment and morale boosting for soldiers serving in World War I. Elspeth Phelps, a renowned London couturiere, was the visionary behind this magical production, conceiving the idea and designing all the costumes. Her extraordinary talent is evident in the intricate and exquisite detailing of Lillah's dress, which adds to the overall allure of the tableau. The flowing, diaphanous fabric, adorned with delicate floral embroidery, perfectly captures the essence of a woodland nymph. The Petticoat Lane Fair at the Albert Hall was a popular annual event, and the Nymphs of Forest tableau was a highlight of the 1917 edition. The event brought together the best of fashion, art, and philanthropy, showcasing Phelps' innovative designs while raising funds for a worthy cause. This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty and power of collaboration between creative visionaries and the transformative impact of art on the human spirit.
