Mr. Garrick in the Character of Richard the IIId.

This magnificent print shows the famous actor, David Garrick acting Richard the Third, the role that made him famous. He is pictured here in the famous tent scene before the Battle of Bosworth, haunted by the ghosts of all those he had murdered. His body is sprawled out along a serpentine curve, a line that Hogarth considered the most beautiful of lines.

Very good condition. The image is crisp and clean, good margins.
