EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature depicts the beloved Victorian-era actor and comedian, H. Monkhouse, in all his jovial glory. Drawn by the skilled hand of Terry Parker, this print transports us back to the 1880s, an era of grand entertainment and theatrical flair. Monkhouse, with his expressive face and twinkling eyes, holds a hat and a cane, exuding an air of confidence and charisma. His exaggerated features, including a prominent nose and bushy mustache, add to the playful and humorous nature of the caricature. Monkhouse was a prominent figure in the Victorian entertainment scene, known for his work in music halls, theatres, and vaudeville shows. He was a versatile performer, excelling in both comedy and drama, and was a regular at the popular Entracte, a London music hall. Monkhouse's performances were marked by their quick wit, impeccable timing, and ability to connect with audiences. This caricature is a testament to Monkhouse's enduring popularity and the impact he had on Victorian entertainment. It serves as a reminder of a bygone era, when live performances were the heart of the community and brought people together in shared laughter and enjoyment. The hat and cane, symbols of Monkhouse's stage persona, add to the nostalgic charm of this image.
