Key item features

  • Title: The Centaur-Ian Manager, 1809
  • Description: A satire on the equestrian performances at Covent Garden, with John Philip Kemble, as a mount for Mrs. Sarah Siddons, as a tragedy queen, with raised dagger. Behind the centaur's kicking hind-legs lies Comedy on her back, a young woman holding up a smiling mask. Harlequin kneels at her feet, flourishing his wooden sword. Kemble says to a troupe of performing dogs and cats: "I will engage you all for the present season and - methinks I shall do well, to engage the Devil to play Lewis's Wood Daemon. Under Kemble's arm is a book: Emendations of Shakespeare by I.P.K.
  • Subjects: Kemble, John Philip,--1757-1823, Siddons, Sarah,--1755-1831, Theatrical productions--England--London--1800-1820
  • Collection: Cartoon Prints, British. The cartoon prints (approximately 8,500 distinct images) in the British Cartoon Prints Collection were published primarily between 1780 to 1830, an era dominated by the prodigious talents and prolific efforts of such famous caricaturists as James Gillray and George Cruikshank. The cartoons highlight aspects of British political life, including tensions with its colonies and other nations, as well as society, fashion, manners, and theater.
