EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature depicts George Edward Barrett, a renowned English comic actor of the Victorian era. Born in 1849, Barrett was the brother of the famous Wilson Barrett, who was also an accomplished actor. This playful image, created in 1882, captures Barrett in the midst of an entr'acte, the intermission between acts during a theatrical performance. Barrett's scruffy appearance and cheeky expression are on full display in this caricature. He wears a worn jacket, the pockets of which seem to bulge with an abundance of unseen treasures. His hat, askew on his head, adds to the carefree and disheveled appearance. The caricaturist, Alfred Bryan, expertly captures the essence of Barrett's comedic persona, which was known for its irreverent and mischievous charm. The 1880s were a golden age for English theater, and Barrett was a beloved figure on the London stage. His ability to connect with audiences and bring laughter to their lives made him a beloved and enduring figure in Victorian entertainment. This caricature serves as a testament to his enduring legacy and the joy he brought to generations of theatergoers. The intricately detailed lines and vibrant colors of this print by Terry Parker, held in the Mary Evans Picture Library, transport us back to a time when the stage was the center of cultural life and the laughter of the audience was the ultimate reward for an actor's art.
