EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Edward Knight in the role of Hodge in the popular opera "Love in a Village" at the esteemed Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London, during the year 1822. The image is a handcolored stipple copperplate engraving, meticulously created by Robert Cooper based on a painting by George Clint. The print is a part of the extensive collection of "D. Terry's British Theatrical Gallery," published by Henry Berthoud Jr. in 1825. Edward Knight, a renowned English actor, is prominently featured in this print, immersed in the character of Hodge. The opera "Love in a Village," a comic masterpiece by Rossini, was a favorite among London audiences during the Romantic era. Knight's portrayal of Hodge was undoubtedly a significant contribution to the production's success. The intricacy of the handcoloring and the meticulous detail of the copperplate engraving bring the image to life, capturing the essence of the theatrical experience during the early 19th century. The print offers a glimpse into the rich history of British theatre and the artistry of its performers, providing a fascinating window into the past. This print is not only a testament to Knight's acting abilities but also a reminder of the captivating performances that once graced the stages of London's historic theatres. It serves as a valuable historical document, shedding light on the world of British theatre during the Romantic era and the enduring appeal of opera.
