EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the renowned English actor, Charles Kean, in the iconic role of King Lear, set against the picturesque backdrop of the Italian island of Ischia. The image, published in 1846, captures a moment of respite during the production of one of Shakespeare's most famous tragedies. The lively and energetic portrayal of Lear contrasts starkly with the historical context of the scene, adding an element of whimsy and nonsense to the image. The Old Person of Ischia was a popular character from a collection of nonsense verses, first published in 1784. The verses, written by an unknown author, tell the tale of an old man who grows increasingly frisky with age, dancing hornpipes and jigs, and eating thousands of figs. This print, with its playful connection to the Old Person of Ischia, adds an unexpected layer of meaning to the image. Kean's performance as Lear was widely acclaimed for its intensity and emotional depth, and this print offers a glimpse into the lighter side of the production. The image also serves as a reminder of the rich history of Shakespearean theatre and the enduring appeal of his works, which continue to inspire and delight audiences to this day. The print, published by Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the power of literature and the arts to transport us to another time and place, and to remind us of the importance of embracing the absurdities and contradictions of life.
