Beskrivning:

Illustration of W. S. Gilbert's The Princess, reworked later into Princess Ida.

Original accompanying text:

SCENE FROM "THE PRINCESS" Our Illustration presents the principle scene from the spectacle now represented at the Olympic - namely, that of the grounds of Castle Adamant, to which Prince Hilarion and his friends gain admission, and there so misbehave themselves that the Princess-Principal of the college has her suspicions, and in the end discovers the trick attempted to be played upon her. The different expressions of her companions show the different feelings with which they are animated. One of them recognises her brother in the supposed female; and thus, by a series of surprises, the plot against the celibate institution is discovered. It thrives, nevertheless; and in the end the fanatical young ladies return to the world and are taught to be content with nature under ordinary conditions.
