EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment from the Warwick Pageant of 1906. Titled "Phyllis and the dying Guy, Episode IV" this color lithograph showcases an illustration for the Souvenir of the Warwick Pageant. The pageant took place in the grounds of Warwick Castle from 2-7 July 1906, commemorating the thousandth anniversary of Queen Ethelfleda's conquest of Mercia. The image depicts Phyllis, a central character in this historical reenactment, standing beside a dying man known as Guy. The scene is filled with emotion and drama as Phyllis gazes upon Guy with concern and compassion. Their costumes reflect the fashion and style prevalent during that era. Invented and arranged by Louis N Parker, this episode was one among many that brought history to life during the grand event at Warwick Castle. The pageant aimed to transport spectators back in time through vivid performances, recreations, and tableaux vivants. This rare photograph print offers us a glimpse into an extraordinary moment captured over a century ago. It serves as a testament to both artistic creativity and historical commemoration. Preserved within private collections today, it reminds us of our shared past while inviting us to delve deeper into the rich tapestry of human history.
