    Victorian Elegance: Captain Beresford & Kitty Gordon

    $19.95

    This photograph features Captain Beresford, a prominent military figure of the early 20th century, and Kitty Gordon, a celebrated stage actress known for her performances during the same period. Taken between 1910 and 1915, this image captures a moment in a vibrant era marked by significant social and cultural change, particularly in the realms of theater and military service. The photograph is part of the George Grantham Bain Collection, which includes a range of significant historical figures and events from that time.

    Captain Beresford was not only known for his military leadership but also became an integral part of the publics fascination with military heroes during the First World War. Kitty Gordon, on the other hand, made a name for herself on the stage; she was quite popular for her roles in musical comedies. Their meeting, as captured by the Bain News Service, signifies a confluence of military and artistic life in a decade rife with transformation and artistic expression. This photograph serves as a visual record of their roles in society, highlighting the diverse personalities that shaped the cultural landscape of the time.
