EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "The Latin Play at Westminster School" takes us back to a bygone era of education and entertainment. Created by the talented artist William Hatherell in 1902, this print captures a scene from Act II of the play. In this lively depiction, we find ourselves amidst the bustling atmosphere of a school theatre in London. The prologue is being delivered by an authoritative captain figure, setting the stage for what promises to be an engaging performance. Students dressed as characters quarrel with each other on stage while others watch attentively from their seats. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable - every facial expression and gesture tells its own story. We can almost hear the animated dialogue between Demipho, Phormio, Geta, and other characters as they bring their roles to life. "The Latin Play at Westminster School" not only showcases Hatherell's artistic skill but also offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of British schools during that time period. It reminds us of how performing arts played an integral role in shaping young minds and fostering creativity within educational institutions. Now preserved within a private collection, this print serves as both a historical document and a testament to the enduring power of theatrical performances throughout history.
