EDITORS COMMENTS
This music cover, titled "Iola, The New Dance Iolanthe," dates back to 1891 and was inspired by the popular comic opera "Iolanthe" by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan. The cover, designed by the talented Popplewell Royle, showcases a man and a woman gracefully engaged in a Schottische dance, a popular dance craze of the late Victorian era. The couple, dressed in elegant attire of the time, exudes an air of sophistication and joy as they twirl and spin in perfect harmony. The cover art, published by Schott & Co. of London, was likely intended to accompany the sheet music for the dance, allowing musicians and dance enthusiasts of the era to replicate the lively steps depicted in the image. The title "Iola, The New Dance Iolanthe" suggests that the dance may have been inspired by or related to the comic opera, adding an extra layer of intrigue and entertainment for those who purchased the sheet music. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the cover art transport us back to the 1890s, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural history of the late Victorian era. Whether you're a fan of music, dance, or the works of Gilbert and Sullivan, this stunning cover is sure to captivate and delight.
