Light uniform browning; edges worn, not affecting image. Hall II, p. 350, 135.
Edmund Kean was one of the most celebrated Shakespearean actors of his generation, performing on both sides of the Atlantic. His fame and notoriety during his short career led to a number of theatrical works based on his life.
The present engraving, by illustrator F.W. Pailthorpe (1838-1914), is a well-documented forgery of the 1814 original by George Cruikshank (1792-1878).
"Horne had a voice of extraordinary range, rich and tangy in timbre, with a stentorian chest register and an exciting top... In concert she once achieved the feat of singing in a single programme Rossini arias and Brünnhilde's Immolation Scene, proof of her exceptional versatility. Throughout her lengthy career she was an admired recitalist, singing lieder, mélodies, Spanish and American songs with equal aplomb." Alan Blyth in Grove Music Online.
