EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the art of theatrical make-up, specifically depicting the transformation of King Lear. The image is part of a series titled "Progressive Pictures" created by Cavendish Morton, an esteemed artist known for his expertise in stage make-up. The photograph offers a glimpse into the intricate process of creating characters for the theatre. Through skillful application, layers upon layers of make-up are meticulously added to bring King Lear to life on stage. Each step in this progressive series reveals the gradual evolution from a blank canvas to the regal and weathered visage that embodies Shakespeare's tragic king. Morton's self-portrait captures not only his technical mastery but also his deep understanding of character portrayal. His attention to detail ensures that every line and wrinkle tells a story, reflecting both Lear's inner turmoil and external struggles. This historical image serves as a testament to the enduring power of theatre and its ability to transport audiences into different worlds through visual storytelling.
