EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Frederick Waddy showcases the famous and prominent Lionel Brough, a well-known figure of the nineteenth century. The detailed portrait is part of the collection "Cartoon Portraits and Biographical Sketches of Men of the Day" published in 1873. With his perceptive brushstrokes, Waddy captures Brough's character in this satirical cartoon. Lionel Brough was a celebrated Victorian actor known for his remarkable achievements on stage. This picture immortalizes him as one of the influential men of his time, surrounded by other notable celebrities depicted in caricature form. Among them is Tony Lumkin, another satirical drawing that adds to the scathing satire present throughout this artwork. The engraving not only serves as a visual representation but also provides insight into the social commentary prevalent during that era. It reflects society's fascination with these larger-than-life personalities and their impact on popular culture. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem from its private collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to an age where portraits like these were highly sought after for their ability to capture not just physical likeness but also the essence of individuals who shaped their time.
