EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the magisterial presence of English actor Es Willard as he portrays the title role of The Cardinal in a 1915 production. Dressed in red ermine-trimmed robes and a mitre, Willard exudes an air of authority and dignity, perfectly embodying the historical character's power and piety. Born in 1853, Edward Smith Willard was a renowned actor of the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, known for his versatility and commanding stage presence. He began his career in the late 1870s and quickly rose to prominence, appearing in a wide range of roles in both classical and contemporary plays. The Cardinal, a historical drama based on the life of Thomas Wolsey, was one of Willard's most celebrated performances. The production, which premiered in London in 1915, was a critical and commercial success, with Willard receiving rave reviews for his portrayal of the complex and enigmatic character. This photograph, taken during the run of the play, captures the essence of Willard's performance, with his piercing gaze and imposing stature conveying the weight of the cardinal's power and the depth of his inner turmoil. The rich red robes and ermine trim add to the sense of grandeur and historical authenticity, making this a truly captivating image of a legendary actor in the midst of a landmark performance.
