EDITORS COMMENTS
The King at the Haymarket Theatre, 20 February (engraving) captures a momentous occasion in history as His Majesty, King Edward VII, graces the renowned London theater with his presence. This exquisite print, created by Samuel Begg and now part of a private collection, immortalizes the royal visit that took place on 20th February. In this scene, we see King Edward VII immersed in the performance of 'Frocks and Frills', an undoubtedly delightful play of its time. The Illustrated London News featured this illustration on 1st March 1902 to commemorate this grand event. The engraving beautifully depicts the regal figure of His Majesty seated in a lavish box within the theater. Surrounded by an aura of majesty and elegance, he is captivated by the enchanting spectacle unfolding before him. The audience around him gazes respectfully towards their beloved monarch. This image not only showcases King Edward VII's passion for performing arts but also highlights his deep connection with his subjects. It serves as a reminder of his dedication to promoting culture and entertainment throughout his reign. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to that fateful evening at Haymarket Theatre over a century ago when royalty met artistry.
