Reginald John "Rex" Whistler (1905–1944)

Programme for a George VI State Performance

of Tchaikovsky's "The Sleeping Princess" in Honour of French President Albert François Lebrun

Royal Opera House, London

22nd March 1939

39.1 cm x 22.6 cm

Elaborately shaped, die-cut cream card covers with embossing, printed images and gold printed Royal crown and cypher. Gilt cord and tassels to the spine. Further illustrations and vignettes within (not by Rex Whistler), with details of performers over 12 pages.

An ornate souvenir programme for the State Performance hosted by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth at the Royal Opera House on 22 March 1939 in honour of the President of the French Republic, Albert François Lebrun (1871-1950) and his wife Madame Lebrun. The performers included Margot Fonteyn, Robert Helpmann, William Chappell, Frank Staff and Frederick Ashton with Sir Thomas Beecham conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

Widely considered to be one of Rex Whistler's most beautiful printed designs this theatre program is a particularly remarkable and imaginative creation, considering the usual status accorded to such ephemeral objects. Along with the design for the shaped and embossed card, Whistler provided the cover illustration with the arms of France and England guarded by the national emblems of the English lion and Gallic rooster ('le coq gaulois'). For the night of the performance Rex Whistler had also decorated the Royal Box with similar motifs

A Versatile & Stylish Solution for Instant Privacy and Space Definition
Color: Black
This AKTOP Room Divider is an absolute game-changer for creating flexible spaces in my open-plan apartment. The 71"x71" single panel is substantial, providing excellent visual privacy without making an area feel completely closed off. The sleek, minimalist black frame looks modern and professional, easily blending into my home office and living area. I've used it to section off a dedicated workspace, creating a psychological barrier from household distractions, and it works equally well as a stylish backdrop for video calls. What I love most is its freestanding and portable design. It requires no tools, drilling, or installation—I simply unfold it and place it wherever I need a temporary wall. It feels remarkably stable and well-made, with a sturdy metal frame and durable fabric that doesn't sag. The size is perfect for most applications. Whether you need to divide a dorm room, create a private nook in a studio, or set up a temporary partition in an office, this screen delivers fantastic functionality and style with zero commitment. It's a brilliantly simple and effective product.

Turning One Big Room into Two
Color: Black
My apartment is basically one big open space, so my living room, dining table, and “office” used to all blend together. After I got this screen, the whole layout finally makes sense. I set it up in the middle and now I have a clear work side and a chill side, and my background for video calls looks way more professional. This divider is a fixed style, so when you set it down it forms a nice straight line. Visually it really feels like a light, mini wall, which is perfect for breaking up a large area. It’s tall and long enough that it actually blocks what you want to hide, so you get real privacy, not just a decorative panel. The woven texture looks nice up close and doesn’t feel cheap, and the color is easy to match with other furniture. It’s not overly heavy either and I can slide it to a new spot by myself when I want to change the room layout. Most days I pull it out as a clean background for meetings and classes, and when I don’t need it as a divider I just move it against the wall and it still looks good there. If you have a big open room or a rental and want to create separate zones without doing any construction, this screen is a simple, effective solution. I’m already recommending it to friends who need more privacy in their space.

AKTOP Room Divider, Freestanding
Color: Black
AKTOP Room Divider, Freestanding ...all parts fit well and easy to assemble and looks great. Using it for church & move back & forth weekly. Screws come out so I reinforced legs. Better if you don't move around a lot or you will need to reinforce legs. Priced well.
