1865 Baritone Harry Plunket Singer 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic Irish baritone, Harry Plunket Greene, in an intimate moment during the 1930s. Born in 1865, Plunket Greene was a celebrated singer of Irish folk songs and ballads, known for his rich, resonant voice and expressive stage presence. The image finds him in a thoughtful pose, holding a cigar, with a contemplative expression that hints at the depth of emotion he brought to his performances. Plunket Greene's career spanned several decades, beginning in the late 19th century when he sang in music halls and pubs in Dublin. He later became a popular performer in London's West End, where he was discovered by the renowned impresario, Sir Thomas Beecham. Beecham helped launch Plunket Greene's international career, which took him to the United States, Australia, and South Africa. Despite his success, Plunket Greene remained true to his Irish roots and continued to perform traditional Irish songs throughout his career. He was also an accomplished actor, appearing in several films and plays, including a production of "Finian's Rainbow" on Broadway. This photograph, taken in 1936, offers a glimpse into the personal side of this beloved performer. The cigar he holds adds an air of sophistication and mystery, while the soft focus and warm lighting create an intimate and introspective atmosphere. The image serves as a reminder of Plunket Greene's enduring legacy as a masterful interpreter of Irish music and a captivating performer.
