EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures Charles Dickens in the role of Captain Bobadil from Ben Jonson's "Every Man in His Humour," a play that first graced the stage in the early 17th century. Dickens, known primarily today as a renowned novelist, began his acting career in the late 1820s and continued to appear on stage intermittently until the late 1850s. In this photograph, taken between 1812 and 1870, Dickens embodies the larger-than-life character of Captain Bobadil with aplomb. Dressed in the elaborate attire of the period, Dickens dons a high-collared, voluminous doublet, adorned with intricate lace and gold trim. He holds a sword in one hand, while the other hand rests on a pair of tall, high-heeled boots. The captain's boots, a fashion statement of the time, are a striking contrast to Dickens' otherwise elegant attire. The historical context of this photograph is significant, as it showcases Dickens' versatility as an artist. His ability to excel in various forms of storytelling, from literature to the stage, solidified his place in the literary and theatrical worlds. The image serves as a testament to Dickens' enduring talent and his dedication to his craft. Ben Jonson's "Every Man in His Humour" was a popular play during Dickens' time, and Dickens' portrayal of Captain Bobadil would have been met with enthusiasm from audiences. This photograph offers a glimpse into Dickens' theatrical past and sheds light on his multifaceted artistic abilities.
