EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature depicts Sir Arthur Wing Pinero, the renowned English actor, playwright, and stage director, in the guise of a Christmas pantomime clown at St. James Theatre in London during the 1880s. The image, painted by Terry Parker for Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases Pinero in an enthralling moment of mischief as he attempts to make off with a joint of meat labeled as 'The Squire.' This playful thievery is a clever reference to Pinero's use of the plot from Thomas Hardy's novel, 'Far From the Madding Crowd,' in his productions. The Victorian era setting is further emphasized by Pinero's exaggerated caricatured features, his colorful clown costume, and the presence of a policeman brandishing a truncheon, adding to the lively and whimsical atmosphere of the pantomime. This delightful illustration not only captures the spirit of the Christmas season but also highlights Pinero's theatrical prowess and his knack for incorporating popular literature into his performances.
