Richard Brinsley Sheridan Sets The Duenna Comics
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vibrant and enchanting scene from Richard Brinsley Sheridan's comic opera, "The Duenna". The focus of the image is on Donna Louisa, beautifully depicted in this color lithograph by George Sheringham. Donna Louisa, one of the central characters in the opera, comes to life through Sheringham's intricate design for costumes and scenery used in the production at the Lyric Theatre Hammersmith. Her elegance and grace are evident as she stands amidst a carefully crafted stage set. "The Duenna" tells a tale filled with humor and romance, brought to life by Sheridan's witty writing. This particular illustration captures the essence of Donna Louisa's character - her youthful innocence combined with an air of sophistication. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost hear the melodic tunes echoing through the theatre. The attention to detail in both costume and set design transports us back to a time when grand productions like these were eagerly anticipated events. This print serves as a testament to both Sheridan's enduring work and Sheringham's artistic talent. It allows us to appreciate not only their contributions but also those who have preserved this piece of theatrical history within private collections today.
