EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature, titled "The Duke of Beaufort's Entr'acte," depicts the 8th Duke of Beaufort, Henry Charles FitzRoy Somerset (1824-1899), in a playful and humorous light as he takes a break from his aristocratic duties to indulge in his love for the stage. The Duke is shown in profile, donning a top hat and wearing an extravagant moustache and whiskers, as he confidently holds the reins of his coach, which is adorned with the Beaufort crest. The coachman, Alfred Bryan, looks on with amusement, perhaps anticipating the Duke's next theatrical performance. The Duke of Beaufort was known for his passion for the arts, particularly the theater. He was a prominent figure in Victorian society and a member of the aristocracy, but his love for the stage set him apart from his peers. This caricature, created in 1881 by Terry Parker, captures the essence of the Duke's unique personality and his penchant for the dramatic. The image is a delightful reminder of the upper class's fascination with the arts and the whimsical nature of Victorian society during the 1880s.
