EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of May Robson, a renowned Australian-born American actress and playwright. Taken in 1901 by the Byron Company, this silver gelatin print showcases Robson's timeless beauty and grace. In this intimate portrait, Robson is seen sitting at her dressing table, surrounded by an array of cosmetics and makeup tools. The image exudes a sense of tranquility as she delicately applies her makeup, perhaps preparing for a performance or simply indulging in self-care. The composition of the photograph draws attention to Robson's expressive face, highlighting her striking features and radiant smile. Her eyes reflect both determination and vulnerability, hinting at the depth of emotion she brings to her craft. Measuring 21.6x16.5 cm, this print perfectly captures the intricate details that make up Robson's world. The monochromatic palette adds a touch of nostalgia to the image while emphasizing its timeless quality. Now housed in the Museum of the City of New York, this photograph serves as a testament to May Robson's enduring legacy in American theater history. It allows us to glimpse into her private moments before stepping onto stage - moments filled with anticipation, dedication, and artistic expression. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded not only of May Robson's talent but also how photography can immortalize fleeting moments that would otherwise be lost to time.
