EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases a historic poster for Thatcher, Primrose and Wests Consolidated Minstrels. The poster, created by an anonymous American artist in the 19th century, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of entertainment during that era. The image features a colorful lithograph with bold typography, advertising the renowned minstrel troupe's upcoming show. The blackened singers are depicted in lively poses, their costumes adorned with vivid colors that add an element of excitement to the composition. This eye-catching advertisement undoubtedly aimed to attract audiences from all walks of life. Through this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness the popularity and influence of minstrel shows as a form of entertainment. While it is important to acknowledge the historical context surrounding these performances and their problematic racial portrayals, this particular artwork serves as a reminder of how art can reflect societal norms and values throughout different periods. Captured beautifully by Barbara Singer's lens, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic merit and historical significance behind such advertisements. It serves as a visual record of an era when color played an integral role not only on stage but also within society at large.
