EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the Souvenir of Fete at Bourne End, New York Lodge, Buckinghamshire on August 1st, 1908. In celebration of the success of the 1908 Olympics, American millionaire and philanthropist George Kessler spared no expense in recreating ancient Athens at his Thames-side house. He enlisted renowned theatre scene painter Henry William Woolls and others to transform the venue into a mesmerizing spectacle. The image showcases a vibrant nighttime scene filled with fairs, tents, and stately buildings adorned with colorful marquees. The atmosphere is electric as fireworks light up the sky above Bourne End. This grand celebration was undoubtedly an unforgettable experience for all who attended. Woolls' gouache on paper painting beautifully captures the essence of this festive occasion. The nocturnal setting adds an air of mystery and enchantment to the scene. It serves as a timeless reminder of an era when extravagant parties were held in opulent settings like New York Lodge. This remarkable souvenir transports us back in time to witness this extraordinary event firsthand. It stands as a testament to both George Kessler's vision and Woolls' artistic talent. As we gaze upon this piece, we cannot help but be captivated by its beauty and wonder what other magnificent celebrations took place within those walls during that golden age.
