EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Mr David Ross in the character of Essex, as portrayed in Henry Jones' The Earl of Essex at Drury Lane Theatre in 1752. The image, a copperplate engraving by J. Thornthwaite after an illustration by James Roberts, is taken from Bells British Theatre, a collection of esteemed English plays published by John Bell in London in 1776. In this theatrical masterpiece, Ross embodies the tragic figure of Essex with remarkable intensity and skill. His commanding presence on stage transports audiences back to the tumultuous world of 16th-century England, where political intrigue and personal ambition collide. The detailed costume worn by Ross adds depth and authenticity to his portrayal. Every intricate detail - from the rich fabrics to the meticulously crafted accessories - enhances his transformation into this iconic historical character. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are reminded of the power that theater holds over our emotions and imaginations. It serves as a timeless reminder that even centuries-old performances can still captivate us today. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with a window into history through their vast collection of fine art prints. This particular piece allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent involved in creating such masterful engravings and Mr David Ross's exceptional acting skills that brought characters like Essex to life on stage during the 18th century.
