26th Cinderella Coach Fairy Fireside Frederick Godmother Kinsella Melville Ponies Princes Pumpkin Rats Stool Walter Wand December
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the magical moment from the 1912 production of Cinderella, staged at the Princes Theatre in London. The image, produced by brothers Walter and Frederick Melville, was brought to life through the artistic brilliance of E.P. Kinsella. The scene depicts Cinderella, seated by the fireside, her fairy godmother appearing before her with an outstretched wand. In a burst of mystical transformation, the pumpkin, horses, and coach are conjured up, as rats scurry away in the background. The fairy godmother's gentle touch turns a simple stool into a magnificent carriage, ready to whisk Cinderella away to the grand ball. The 1910s were an era of popular theatrical entertainment, and the Melville brothers' production of Cinderella was no exception. The brothers, known for their innovative and high-quality productions, spared no expense in creating a truly magical experience for their audiences. The image captures the enchantment and wonder of the fairy tale, transporting us back to a time when the theatre was a source of escape and delight. The photograph, taken on the 26th of December, 1912, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Cinderella and the power of theatrical storytelling. The image is a beautiful reminder of the magic and wonder that can be found on the stage, and the timeless allure of this classic fairy tale.
