The photograph, taken in 1831, captures Siddons in the midst of delivering one of her most iconic performances, her portrayal of Lady Macbeth leaving an indelible mark on the annals of theatre history. Born in 1755, Sarah Siddons began her acting career in 1775, quickly rising to prominence for her powerful and emotive performances.
