EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the distinguished Welsh actor, Hugh Emrys Griffith, in the iconic role of King Lear. Griffith, born in 1912, was a versatile performer who graced both the stage and the silver screen with his exceptional talent. This image, taken circa 1960, captures the intensity and wisdom of the aging monarch as he delves into the depths of Shakespeare's most complex and heart-wrenching play. King Lear is one of the Bard's most famous tragedies, and the role of the titular character is considered one of the greatest acting challenges in all of literature. Griffith's portrayal of the monarch, who is driven mad by betrayal and sorrow, is a testament to his remarkable ability to convey the full range of human emotion. Griffith's career spanned over four decades, and he earned an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role as the slave Merlini in the 1959 film "Ben-Hur." However, it was his work on the stage that truly solidified his place in the annals of theatrical history. His performance as King Lear is often cited as one of the greatest in the history of the role. This photograph is a stunning reminder of Griffith's unforgettable portrayal of this tragic and complex character. The image captures not only the physical transformation of the actor but also the depth of emotion and understanding that he brought to the role. It is a testament to the power of Shakespeare's words and the enduring legacy of a truly great actor.
