AFTER FREDERICK WALKER. The Woman in White

The Woman in White. Artist: After Frederick Walker (British, London 1840-1875 Perthshire, Scotland). Dimensions: Image: 7 3/8 × 4 5/16 in. (18.8 × 11 cm)
Sheet: 8 3/4 × 6 9/16 in. (22.2 × 16.7 cm). Engraver: Block cut by William Harcourt Hooper (British, London 1834-1912 London). Date: 1871.
Walker designed this poster for Wilkie Collins's "The Woman in White," staged at the Olympic Theatre, London in 1871-2. Collins adapted the script from his enormously successful mystery novel published in 1859, and Walker was a friend. Considered the first theatrical poster by a well-known artist, the image represents the actress Anne Catherick swathed in a white cloak, flinging open a church door to step out into a graveyard at night.
