The Actor Alois Wohlmuth as Richard III | Fritz von Uhde | 19th Century

Alois Wohlmuth appears mid-performance, leaning forward with one arm braced on a long sword. His furrowed brow and parted lips suggest speech caught at a moment of urgency, while the spread of his embroidered cloak lends weight to his uneven stance. Von Uhde concentrates the brightest light on the actor’s face and hand, letting much of the costume disappear into smoky darkness. The portrait records both a recognisable performer and the physical effort of inhabiting Shakespeare’s troubled king.
