EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature depicts Clement William Scott, a prominent figure in the Victorian theatre scene, as he enjoys an evening at the theatre. Dressed impeccably in a white shirt, bowtie, and waistcoat, Scott sits comfortably in a plush theatre box, his moustache and monocle adding to his distinguished air. The man of letters, who worked for the Daily Telegraph and other esteemed publications, was not only an influential English theatre critic but also a playwright, lyricist, translator, and travel writer. With a pen in hand, Scott was known for his insightful and incisive reviews, which shaped public opinion and influenced the direction of the English stage during the late 19th century. In this moment of quiet reflection during the intermission, or 'entracte,' Scott appears deep in thought, perhaps pondering the merits of the performance unfolding before him. The caricature, created in 1880 by an unknown artist, captures the essence of Scott's professional and personal identity, making it a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian theatre.
