Framed Print of Sketches from "Patience, " at the Opera Comique, 1881. Creator: Swain
Sketches from "Patience, " at the Opera Comique, 1881. London stage show satirising Oscar Wilde, ...so cleverly written by Mr W. S. Gilbert, and exquisitely sung to by Mr. Arthur Sullivan...A tear-drop dews each martial eye!; Bunthorne; two love-sick maidens; Aesthetic! He is Aesthetic! Yes, yes - I am Aesthetic and Poetic!; Patience; Jane - "No. Not pretty. Massive"; "I shall have to be contented with their heartfelt sympathy!"; Nobody be Bunthorne's bride!; "I'm a steady and stolid-ly jolly bank-holidy every-day young man!"...Much of the satire is clearly on the surface, but "Patience" goes deeper than the rest into the mystery of aestheticism...It is amusing; but it is terribly true. It is a satire of a human weakness, more than of a society craze...The...Dragoon Guards, the portentous Lady Jane with her muscular development, the half-starved Bunthorne, the massive Grosvenor, the maidens with their lyres and mandolins who crown their devoted poet with roses, all the modern revivalists of a form of obsolete pagan worship, even the "steady and stolidy, jolly bank-holiday, everyday young man" would not be nearly so amusing were it not for those strains by Arthur Sullivan that grow upon the ear and become more popular by repetition'.
