EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the talented English actor Henry Edwards, captured in 1928 by WD & HO Wills. Edwards, born in 1882 and passing away in 1952, was an influential figure in the world of acting during the early 20th century. This particular image is part of a series called Cinema Stars (1928), which consisted of cigarette cards featuring renowned actors and actresses. In this portrait, Edwards exudes a certain charm and elegance that made him a matinee idol of his time. His piercing gaze draws you into his world, while his poised demeanor hints at the depth he brought to his performances on both stage and screen. As one of Britain's most celebrated film stars, Edwards left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry. The vibrant color palette used in this print adds to its allure, capturing not only Edward's physical appearance but also evoking the spirit of the roaring twenties. The combination of artistry and technical skill evident here reflects both WD & HO Wills' craftsmanship as well as their appreciation for cinematic talent. This print serves as a testament to Henry Edwards' contribution to British cinema history—a reminder of an era when silent films reigned supreme and actors like him were revered icons.
