EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, dating back to 1690, showcases the renowned English poet and playwright John Dryden in the character of Socia from his play "All for Love," which he co-wrote with John Dennis and Nathaniel Lee. The play, a tragic romance based on the story of Amphitityon, was first performed at the Duke's Theatre in London. Dryden, a literary giant of the Restoration period, is depicted here in the role of Socia, a servant to Amphitryon, who is torn between his love for his wife Alcmene and the god Jupiter, who has taken on the form of Amphitryon. The complex web of deceit and desire forms the basis of this intriguing and emotionally charged play. The image captures Dryden's intense expression and the theatricality of the moment, as Socia reveals the truth to Alcmene. The detailed costume and the dramatic lighting add to the sense of drama and intrigue, transporting us back to the world of the Restoration theatre. This print offers a unique glimpse into the world of 17th-century theatre and the life of one of its most celebrated figures. Dryden's contributions to English literature, particularly his mastery of the heroic couplet, continue to be celebrated to this day. This print serves as a reminder of his enduring legacy and the rich history of English theatre.
