EDITORS COMMENTS
This magnificent photograph captures the breathtaking sight of the reconstructed Royal Opera House at Covent Garden in 1912, during Professor Reinhardt's groundbreaking production of Sophocles' timeless tragedy, Oedipus. The opera house, a masterpiece in its own right, had undergone extensive renovations to accommodate the professor's innovative vision for the classic Greek play. The Reconstructed Royal Opera House, a symbol of London's rich cultural heritage, had been transformed into an architectural marvel, with its grand columns, intricate facades, and sprawling gardens. The meticulous restoration, a labor of love and dedication, was a testament to the enduring appeal of the arts and the power of human ingenuity. At the helm of this production was Professor Reinhardt, a renowned scholar and visionary, who had brought together the greatest minds of the time to breathe new life into Sophocles' masterpiece. The play, translated by Professor Gilbert Murray, had been adapted by W.L. Courtney, ensuring a faithful yet contemporary interpretation of the ancient text. The photograph captures the essence of this collaborative effort, with the reconstructed opera house standing proudly in the background, a beacon of artistic excellence and innovation. The production of Oedipus, with its stunning sets, costumes, and unforgettable performances, would go down in history as one of the greatest outcomes of the Greek genius of Sophocles, brought to life in the heart of London in 1912.
