Title | [Jessie Rose and Richard Green in 'The Gondoliers'] |
Description | Portrait of Jessie Rose as Tessa and Richard Green as Giuseppe Palmieri in Gilbert and Sullivan's operetta 'The Gondoliers'. Green sits at the base of a stone column, looking at Rose who poses on his knee. Postcard published by Raphael Tuck for the 'Play Pictorial' series. The caption on the reverse of the card reads: 'Tessa is the charming contadina who is in love with Giuseppe Palmieri, one of the twin gondoliers whose claim to the throne of Barataria forms the theme of the plot. Giuseppe and his twin brother Marco are informed, after their marriage to their respective partners, that one of them - thanks to a dishonest nurse - is supposed to be a changeling prince'. |
