EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature portrays the renowned Victorian actor, Thomas Swinburne, affectionately known as 'Old Tom.' The image, created in 1883, captures Swinburne in his prime, with a mischievous grin and an extravagant moustache that was as famous as his acting skills. The artist, Bryan, masterfully exaggerated Swinburne's features, enhancing his distinctive character and adding a touch of humor to the portrait. Swinburne was a popular figure on the London stage during the 1880s, and his performances in comedies and farces brought joy and laughter to audiences. His long and successful career spanned over five decades, and he was known for his versatility and ability to adapt to various roles. Swinburne's talent extended beyond the stage, as he was also an accomplished singer and musician. The caricature, titled 'Entr'acte,' was published on July 21, 1883, and offers a glimpse into the playful side of this beloved actor. The Victorian era was a time of artistic innovation and creativity, and caricatures like this one were a popular form of entertainment and social commentary. Swinburne's caricature serves as a reminder of the rich cultural history of the time and the enduring appeal of the human spirit, even in its most exaggerated form. This rare and charming print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, is a must-have for any history buff, theater enthusiast, or collector of Victorian-era memorabilia. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the image to life, making it a true treasure for those who appreciate the art of caricature and the legacy of Thomas Swinburne.
