EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature portrays the eccentric and enigmatic figure of Carl Rosa (1842-1889), a German-born musical impresario who made a significant mark on the Victorian musical scene. Known for founding the renowned Carl Rosa Opera Company, Rosa is depicted here in a moment of intense concentration and unbridled passion for his art. With bushy beard and moustache framing his intense gaze, Rosa's eyes seem to burn with an inner fire, as if daring anyone to approach him in his current state. The caricature, titled "Mr. Snazelle, keep away from him!" adds an element of danger and madness to the image, further emphasizing the enigmatic persona of this musical visionary. Dressed in formal attire, complete with top hat and cane, Rosa exudes an air of authority and eccentricity that was both intriguing and intimidating to those around him. This image, created in 1884, offers a glimpse into the complex and fascinating world of Carl Rosa and his unwavering dedication to the world of music and opera.
