EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing moment from the renowned play "The Tempest" at the Savoy Theatre on 5th January 1926. The talented Henry Baynton takes center stage, embodying the complex character of Caliban with remarkable intensity. In this monochrome image, Baynton's portrayal of Caliban is nothing short of extraordinary. His contorted body language and expressive face convey both vulnerability and menace, capturing the essence of Shakespeare's tormented creature. The intricate details in his costume further enhance his transformation into this otherworldly being. Taken during the vibrant era of the 1920s, this photograph reflects a time between two world wars when art and culture flourished amidst uncertainty. It serves as a testament to Europeana photography's ability to capture significant moments in history that continue to resonate today. Preserved by Central News, this image not only showcases exceptional theatrical talent but also provides a glimpse into an era defined by artistic innovation and social change. As we admire Baynton's powerful performance frozen in time, we are reminded of the enduring power of theater to transport us beyond our own reality
