Images size: 13 1/8 x 16 inches. One of the most famous portraits of the actor David Garrick by Sir Joshua Reynolds. David Garrick 1717-1779 was perhaps the most influential actor in the English theater. He successfully took on all aspects of theatrical production including actor manager playwright publicist and theatre advocate. He displayed an amazing range by convincingly playing parts in every genre from comedy to tragedy history to farce. From 1747 until his retirement in 1776 he was the manager of Drury Lane where he initiated many improvements: he introduced concealed stage lighting removed spectators from the stage and cultivated a naturalistic style of acting. Garrick was acutely conscious of the value of pictures as advertisements. He sat for every painter of note many of whom are now little more than names. He was painted in oils and in watercolours drawn in pencil and in pastels modelled in wax and in terracotta; his likeness even appeared on medals Wedgewood china and playing-cards. This portrait by his friend Reynolds demonstrates in a mildly humorous way the actor's talents and character; posed between Tragedy and Comedy Garrick is depicted the master of both. Garrick's broad smile and Tragedy's melodramatic stance note the dagger at her waist favor Comedy. Reynolds' painting was a huge public success and inspired many prints and paintings pirated prints of the image even made their way to the streets of Paris. The popularity of this image is a testimony to Garrick's fame and to Reynolds' talent.
