Haymarket-Scene from "The Second Calendar and the Queen of Beauty... ",1850. Creator: Unknown.

Haymarket - Scene from "The Second Calendar and the Queen of Beauty who had to fight with the Genie", 1850. London stage production by the brothers Brough. 'The plot...is taken from not only the celebrated story whose name it bears, but also from another tale in the same work, the celebrated "Arabian Nights' Entertainment", the two stories being very ingeniously dove-tailed...The introductory scene is a picnic in the Desert, in which the King of the Ebony Isles (Mr. J. Bland) incurs the displeasure of a malignant genie, Jargarhees (Mr. E. Selby)...The Prince Agib (Miss Anne Romer, her first appearance at this theatre), has been robbed by banditti, and is discovered bound to a tree by Codja, a woodman (Mr. Buckstone)...of course the Prince falls in love with the Princess, and the Genie, in his rage on discovering it, transforms the handsome Prince into an Ape (played by Mr, Lebarr)'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
