EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant world of 1960s theatre. The image showcases the legendary Laurence Olivier in his dressing room at Old Vic, adorned in a striking costume for his iconic production of Othello. As he prepares to take the stage, there is an undeniable aura of anticipation and excitement surrounding him. What makes this photograph truly extraordinary is the presence of Princess Marina by Olivier's side. A member of royalty herself, her regal elegance adds a touch of grandeur to this intimate moment. Their connection seems effortless and genuine, bridging the gap between two worlds - that of art and monarchy. Olivier's talent as both an actor and director shines through even in stillness. His piercing gaze reflects years of dedication and mastery in his craft. It is evident that he embodies Shakespeare's tragic hero with unparalleled intensity. The setting itself exudes history and tradition; it serves as a reminder that theatre has always been a place where magic happens behind closed doors before unfolding on stage for all to witness. John Downing/Staff captures this timeless scene with remarkable skill, allowing us to glimpse into a moment frozen in time. This print not only immortalizes one man's brilliance but also encapsulates an era when actors were revered as true artists and royal patronage was cherished within the theatrical realm.
