EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Miss Elizabeth Younge in the character of Artemisia from Nicholas Rowe's play, "The Ambitious Step-Mother". Despite her remarkable portrayal captured in this image, it is intriguing to note that she never had the opportunity to perform this role on the London stage. Miss Elizabeth Younge, also known as Elizabeth Pope, was a renowned English actress who specialized in Shakespearean roles during the years 1740-1797. Her talent and versatility made her a beloved figure among audiences of her time. In this copperplate engraving by J. Thornthwaite after an illustration by James Roberts, we see Miss Elizabeth Younge embodying Artemisia with grace and poise. The intricate details of her costume and theatrical presence add depth to her portrayal. The image is sourced from Bell's British Theatre, a collection consisting of esteemed English plays compiled by John Bell in London in 1777. It serves as a testament to both Miss Elizabeth Younge's exceptional acting skills and the enduring legacy of theater during the 18th century. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the power of performance and its ability to transport us into different worlds. Miss Elizabeth Younge may not have played Artemisia on London stages, but through this print, she continues to captivate our imagination centuries later.
