The captivating print of "Mark Lemons The Turf (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the world of performing arts and theatre. This exquisite engraving, created by an English School artist, showcases a scene from Mark Lemon's comedic play "The Turf". In this lively portrait, we witness the talented actor George Bartley embodying his character with remarkable finesse. His expressive face and dynamic body language transport us into the heart of the theatrical experience. As we gaze at this image, we can almost hear the laughter echoing through the theater walls. "The Turf" was a beloved production that captivated audiences during its time. It was so well-received that it even made its way onto the pages of The Illustrated London News on November 5th, 1842. This engraving served as an illustration for that publication, further immortalizing Lemon's work. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this piece of history within their private collection. Through their efforts, we are able to appreciate not only Lemon's genius but also gain insight into the vibrant world of 19th-century theater.
