The image is significant because it was used to promoted the theatrical portrayal of the real life relationship between Dr. Alexander Graham Bell and Alexander Ellis, a colleague of Bell's father, Dr. Alexander Melville Bell. Alexander Ellis is portrayed as Professor Henry Higgins, a philologist, in the story line of My Fair Lady. In real life Ellis, Dr. Bell, his brother, father and grandfather were all philologists, and the theatrical portrayal refers to them in homage in reference to the use of "Bell's Visible Speech".
