EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the legendary English actor, Edmund Kean, in the pivotal role of Shakespeare's Richard III. The photograph, taken in 1833, showcases Kean's masterful portrayal of the infamous king, as he lies in deceit with a sword clutched in his hand. The scene is set in the pivotal moment of Act II, where Richard, having orchestrated the deaths of his rivals, boasts of his treachery to the audience. Edmund Kean (1786-1833) is considered one of the greatest Shakespearean actors of all time. His career spanned over three decades, during which he brought some of the Bard's most iconic characters to life on the stage. Born in London, Kean began his acting career in 1804, and quickly gained renown for his powerful performances and ability to connect with audiences. In this image, Kean is seen wearing the ermine-trimmed robe of a nobleman, adding an air of authenticity to his portrayal of the cunning and manipulative Richard III. The ermine fur, a symbol of royalty and nobility, further emphasizes the irony of Richard's deceitful nature. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to the rich history of English theatre and the enduring legacy of Edmund Kean's remarkable talent. This image is not only a testament to the power of performance, but also a reminder of the timeless appeal of Shakespeare's works and the captivating characters they bring to life.
