EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned American actor and comedian, John Sleeper Clarke (1833-1899). Known for his exceptional talent and wit, Clarke is captured in this late 19th-century portrait donning a striking costume. The image depicts him in the role of Bob Acres from the famous play "The Rivals" believed to be taken around 1888. Clarke's aristocratic character comes to life through his impeccable fashion choices. He stands confidently, wearing an elegant jacket paired with knickers that were fashionable during that era. His attention to detail is evident as he adorns himself with a peruke wig, adding an air of sophistication to his appearance. In this sepia-toned photograph, Clarke exudes charm and charisma as he poses gracefully. His dancing eyes hint at the comedic brilliance that made him beloved by audiences across America. With every performance, he effortlessly transported spectators into another world filled with laughter and entertainment.
