EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the legendary actor Herbert Beerbohm Tree in his iconic role as Shakespeare's King Richard II at His Majesty's Theatre in London, dating back to 1903. Known for his commanding stage presence and unparalleled talent, Tree brought this historical figure to life with grace and power.
In this image, we see Tree seated on a regal throne, adorned in royal attire complete with a crown, ermine robe, orb, and sceptre. His expression is one of solemnity and contemplation, embodying the complexities of Richard II's character - a king torn between duty and desire, pride and downfall.
The Edwardian era was a time of great cultural flourishing in England, marked by lavish productions such as this one. Charles Buchel's masterful photography perfectly captures the grandeur of Tree's performance and the opulence of the production design.
As an English actor who was revered for his interpretations of Shakespearean roles, Tree's portrayal of King Richard II remains etched in theatrical history. This print serves as a timeless reminder of his contribution to the world of entertainment and his enduring legacy as one of the greatest actors of his time.
