EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 19th century British theater scene as we witness Henry Gattie embodying the character of Monsieur Morbleu in William Thomas Moncrieff's farce, Monsieur Tonson. The talented actor, known for his versatility and skillful performances, brings this comical character to life with great finesse. Dressed in period clothing consisting of an apron and breeches, Mr. Gattie exudes charm and charisma on stage. His portrayal of Monsieur Morbleu is nothing short of remarkable as he captures the essence of a wigmaker with unparalleled precision. With a wig perched atop his head and a mischievous glint in his eye, Gattie effortlessly immerses himself into the role. The artist R Cooper masterfully captures this moment from the play, showcasing both Gattie's talent and Moncrieff's brilliant writing. The attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke - from the intricate folds of Mr. Gattie's costume to the subtle nuances in his expression. This print serves as a testament not only to Henry Gattie's exceptional acting abilities but also to the vibrant world of theater during that era. It allows us a glimpse into an enchanting time when live performances were at their peak, entertaining audiences with laughter and joy. As we admire this portrait today, let us appreciate the artistry behind it - both by R Cooper who immortalized this moment
