Sketch front cover, Gaby Deslys in Rosy Rapture
Front cover of The Sketch magazine featuring French actress and music hall artiste, Gaby Deslys, in the role of Lady Lil in the J. M. Barrie burlesque, Rosy Rapture, which was a popular show in 1915. Unusually for Ms Deslys she appears, at various times unfeathered and unpearled, which to say the least, is unusual, an allusion to her fame for lavish stage costumes
