Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Philanderer: A Facsimile of the Holograph Manuscript A lady and gentleman are making love to one another in the drawing-room of a flat in Ashly Gardens in the Victoria district of London. It is past ten at night. The wall are hung with theatrical engravings and photographs - Kemble as Hamlet, Mrs. Siddons as Queen Katherine pleading in court, Macready as Werner (aafter Maclise), sir Henry Irving as Richard III (after long), Miss Ellen Terry, Mrs. Kendal, Miss Ada Rehan, Madame Sarah Bernhardt, Mr. Henry Arthur James, Mr. A. W. Pinero, Mr. Sydney Grundy, and so on, but bit the Signora Duse or anyone connected with Ibsen. The room is not a perfect square, the right band corner at the back being cut off diagonally by the doorway, and the opposite corner rounded by a turret window filled up with a stand of flowers surrounding a statue of Shakespear. The fireplace is on the right, with an armchair near it. A small round table, further forward in the same side, with a chair beside it, has a yellow-backed French novel lying open on it. The piano, a grand, is on the lest, open, with the keyboard in full view at right angles to the wall. The piece of music on the desk is "When other lips." Incandescent lights, well shaded, are on the piano and mantelpiece. Near the piano is a sofa, on which the lady and gentleman are seated affectionately side by side, in one another´s arms.
