EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Story of Orestes", transports us back to the Princes Hall in Piccadilly during a mesmerizing performance. Act III unfolds before our eyes as we witness the Ghost of Clytemnestra awakening the Furies with an intensity that sends shivers down our spines. The artist, Percy Macquoid, skillfully captures this pivotal moment from Greek mythology. The intricate details bring life to each character on stage, their expressions reflecting a mix of fear and awe. The ethereal presence of Clytemnestra's ghost adds an eerie touch to the scene while her actions awaken the wrathful Furies. As we delve into this visual narrative, it becomes evident that London University Endowment Fund has sponsored this remarkable production. Their support enables audiences to experience such extraordinary performances filled with drama and emotion. "The Story of Orestes" is not just a play; it is a testament to human nature's complexity and consequences faced by those who transgress moral boundaries. This engraving serves as a reminder of the timeless power theater holds over its spectators – transporting them through time and space into worlds both familiar and fantastical.
