With this I...did hand to hand engage the stalworth Englishers, scene from "Richelieu", 1873. Creator: Unknown.

With this I, at Rochelle, did hand to hand engage the stalworth Englishers, scene from "Richelieu", 1873. Lyceum theatre production. 'The assumption by Mr. Henry Irving of the character of Richelieu, in Lord Lytton's tragedy, has become a feature in the theatrical history of the period. His portrait of the old Cardinal-Statesman is marked by many distinguishing and peculiar touches, which give it sufficient individuality, and, indeed, make it worthier of consideration as a work of art. It is marked rather, however, by intellectual power than physical energy; and where the latter is required a strain on the system is perceptible which substitutes natural incapacity for simulated weakness, and so far interferes with the spectator's enjoyment. The scene (act ii. scene 2) selected by our Artist is that wherein the Cardinal tries his ancient battle-sword, that proves too large and heavy for the old man, and makes manifest to him the infirmity of age, which for the moment, being excited, he had forgotten. The business and action of the scene are very interesting, but require judicious handling. Mr. Irving is studiously picturesque...Altogether, the treatment of the incident is highly creditable, we think, both to the actor and the artist'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
