EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Lionel Brough brilliantly portrays the role of Trinculo, the jester from Shakespeare's enchanting play, "The Tempest." Dated back to 1904, this image transports us to the Edwardian era, showcasing the theatrical flair of the time. Brough's expressive features and intricate costume bring Trinculo to life, as he appears both sad and drunkenly merry, holding a bell in each hand. Trinculo, a comic relief character, is a loyal servant to the sorcerer Prospero and is known for his mischievous antics. In this scene, he is depicted with a red, patched costume, adding to his jester-like appearance. The photograph captures the essence of Brough's performance, as he masterfully balances the melancholic undertones of Trinculo's character with the comedic elements, making for an unforgettable portrayal. Charles Buchel, a renowned photographer of the era, captured this moment in time, immortalizing Brough's performance for future generations to appreciate. This photograph is a testament to the power of Shakespeare's timeless words and the captivating artistry of the actors who brought them to life during the early 1900s. The image invites us to reflect on the rich history of theatre and the enduring allure of "The Tempest," as well as the remarkable talent of Lionel Brough in his portrayal of Trinculo.
