EDWARD H. SOTHERN
Carte de visite signed by the Anglo-American Shakespearean actor
Photograph signed: "Edward H. Sothern". Sepia, 4¼x6¾. Carte de visite
by Falk of New York City. Edward H. Sothern (1859-1933) was born
in the US, the son of an English actor, and educated in England. He proved
equally successful on stages in both countries after making his American debut
in 1879, his English one in 1881. After regional performances, Marlowe appeared
in the first of more than 70 Broadway plays in 1895. However, it was in
Shakespearean roles, partnered with Julia Marlowe , that Sothern earned lasting
fame. Acting partners from 1904, business partners shortly thereafter,
and a married couple from 1911, Marlowe and Sothern were considered the
outstanding American Shakespearean talents of their era, paired in Romeo and
Juliet, Antony and Cleopatra, Hamlet and Macbeth.
Corners and edges lightly worn. Lightly soiled. Tear on image on left edge. Ink
