EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, dating back to 1776, showcases the renowned theatrical duo, Mr. and Mrs. Barry, in the pivotal roles of Bajazet and Selima from Christopher Marlowe's classic play, "Tamerlane." The image, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures a dramatic moment from Act V, where Bajazet, with anguish in his eyes, confronts Selima, brandishing a dagger. Marlowe's "Tamerlane," first performed in 1605, is a tragic play that tells the story of the Mongol conqueror, Tamerlane, and his quest for power and conquest. The characters of Bajazet and Selima are central to the plot, with their complex relationship adding depth to the narrative. Mr. and Mrs. Barry were two of the most celebrated actors of their time, known for their exceptional talent and ability to bring characters to life on stage. In this print, they embody the raw emotion and intensity of Bajazet and Selima, making the moment between them all the more compelling. The print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the world of 18th-century theatre and the captivating performances of Mr. and Mrs. Barry. It serves as a testament to their artistry and the enduring power of live theatre to move and inspire audiences.
