Edmund Kean as Richard III, 1822: A Theatrical Triumph This image showcases the legendary English actor, Edmund Kean, in his iconic portrayal of King Richard III in William Shakespeare's eponymous play at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in 1822. The handcolored stipple copperplate engraving, created by Robert Cooper after a painting by George Clint, offers a vivid and intricate depiction of Kean's powerful and mesmerizing performance. Edmund Kean (1787-1833) was a celebrated figure in the world of British theatre, renowned for his versatility and intensity. His interpretation of Richard III, a malevolent and power-hungry monarch, was considered groundbreaking and unforgettable. The play, which follows Richard's rise to the throne and his subsequent reign marked by deceit and treachery, provided Kean with an opportunity to fully display his acting prowess.

Kean's performance as Richard III was a significant event in its storied past, leaving a lasting impact on audiences and influencing future interpretations of the character. This engraving, part of Henry Berthoud Jr.'s British Theatrical Gallery, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Edmund Kean and his unforgettable portrayal of Richard III.
