The Wicked World

Original - David Henry Friston's illustration of the climax of Act III of The Wicked World, just before mortal love leaves fairyland forever. From The Illustrated London News of February 8, 1873.

Reason

Of high artistic merit, and highly encyclopedic for Gilbert, the play, and the history of a theatre that largely came to be a success because of Gilbert's plays.
