EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time during the late 19th century, specifically in 1890, at the Honourable Artillery Company's Headquarters in Finsbury, London. The occasion was a Cigarette Concert, an event that combined entertainment and social gathering for both military personnel and civilians alike. In this particular image, we see two performers taking center stage - Miss Nellie Farren and Mr. Fred Leslie. They are dressed as characters from the play "Ruy Blas" performing a duet for the audience's delight. Miss Farren exudes elegance with her Victorian attire while Mr. Leslie complements her presence with his dashing charm. The atmosphere is filled with excitement as men and women gather around to witness this enchanting performance. The crowd is diverse, representing different walks of life within British society during that era. As smoke swirls through the air, it becomes evident that smoking was not only socially acceptable but also prevalent among attendees at such events. This detail adds an intriguing layer to our understanding of past customs and societal norms. Preserved by unknown hands over generations, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history - capturing not just a single moment on stage but also revealing aspects of culture, fashion trends, and entertainment preferences of the time period. It serves as a testament to how art can transcend time and connect us to our ancestors' experiences in ways we may never have imagined possible.
