EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Mr C Kean as Gloster, Richard III, Act I, Scene I" transports us back to the 19th century and immerses us in the world of Shakespearean theater. The image showcases Mr C Kean's portrayal of Gloster, a central character in William Shakespeare's historical play Richard III. Dressed in an elaborate costume befitting the era, Mr C Kean exudes power and charisma as he embodies this complex fictional character. His intense gaze captures our attention while his hand rests confidently on his sword hilt. The attention to detail in both his attire and expression highlights the meticulous craftsmanship of this engraving. The scene depicted here is from Act I, Scene I of Richard III - a pivotal moment that sets the stage for the unfolding drama. As we admire this artwork, we can almost hear the echoes of Shakespeare's words reverberating through time. This print was originally created as an illustration for "The Complete Works of Shakespeare" published around 1880. Its digital restoration has ensured its preservation and allows us to appreciate it today with clarity and vibrancy. Through this image, we are reminded of the enduring legacy of Shakespeare's plays and their ability to captivate audiences across centuries. It serves as a testament to both Charles Kean's talent as an actor and Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving artistic treasures for future generations to enjoy.
