EDITORS COMMENTS

This evocative image, created by Max Marcin and Charles Guernon, was first performed in London at St. James Theatre on September 2, 1918, and later toured to the Theatre Royal in Great Yarmouth on August 25, 1919. Betty Fairfax, born in 1889, is depicted in the painting with her auburn red hair cascading down her shoulders, framing her porcelain skin and expressive features. Her youthful countenance is in stark contrast to the torn and ragged dress she wears, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to her persona. The rose in her hand further emphasizes the theme of youth and beauty, while her profile view invites the viewer to contemplate her inner thoughts and emotions. Max Marcin and Charles Guernon were renowned for their theatrical portraits, capturing the essence of popular entertainment during the early 20th century. This painting of Betty Fairfax is a testament to their artistic skill and the enduring allure of the stage. The image transports us back to a bygone era, evoking the excitement and glamour of live theatre during the 1910s. Betty Fairfax's expressive eyes, the focal point of the painting, convey a sense of vulnerability and depth, inviting the viewer to connect with her on a personal level. The painting is a poignant reminder of the power of theatre to transport us to other worlds and to touch our hearts and minds. This image is a must-have for any collection of theatre history, art, or the history of early 20th-century popular entertainment. The Eyes of Youth by Max Marcin and Charles Guernon is a timeless work of art that continues to captivate and inspire audiences today.
