EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary David Garrick in his iconic portrayal of Gloucester in William Shakespeare's Richard III. Painted by Francis Hayman in 1759, this oil on canvas artwork measures 89.5x64 cm and is currently housed at The Holburne Museum in Bath, UK. David Garrick was a prominent figure in the 18th-century theatrical scene, known for his immense influence as an actor, playwright, theatre manager, and producer. A close associate of Dr Samuel Johnson, he revolutionized various aspects of theatrical practice during his time. Garrick's talent and dedication to his craft were evident from early on. With his remarkable performance as Richard III at Drury Lane Theatre, audiences and managers alike began to recognize his exceptional abilities. This role marked a turning point in Garrick's career and solidified him as a force to be reckoned with on stage. In this portrait-like painting, we see Garrick adorned in armor with sword and helmet nearby—a visual representation of the battlefield setting where much of Richard III takes place. His dramatic posture exudes power and intensity while capturing Gloucester's complex character. The rich landscape behind him adds depth to the composition, enhancing the overall dramatic effect. This image serves as a testament to both Garrick's professional prowess as an actor and Shakespeare's enduring legacy.
