Designers and Makers of Fine 84 Princess Street | AB AT THE GRAND To-night William Faversham's Come pany Will Be Here Mr. Faversham has provided - a scenic investiture for "Julius Caes- ar" that 1s as authoritative and arch- aeologically correct as it is alluring to the eye. Not only the scenery itself but the costumes also were de- signed by Tadema." From the de- signs of Tadema the scenery was ac- tually painted by the celebrated Eng- lish artist, Joseph Harker, who Is responsible for the colorful scenery in "Kismet." So desirous was Mr. Harker that every detail of the pro- duction should reflect: the actual of Rome that he insisted hupon devot- ng six months to research "work and investigation before he would go ahead with the painting, despite the fact that the designs by Tadema Which hé had to work from, we: considered absolutely authoritative by the highest experts in the Brit. ish Museum. As a matter of record it. may be noted ,thit Mr. Harker during his six months' investgat- fon could not find a single point in which Alma Tadema's designs were at fauft. So-every spectator who at- tends "Julius Caesar" may feel that the vivid, spectacular settings are portraying to him Rome 'as it really was in all its pomp and splendour, with no erroneous interpolations on the part of & fanciful scenic artist.
