About this work

This print shows two men on a stage, one playing a king. The scene is likely a satire of a play, with the actors depicted in a comedic way. The print also seems to be making fun of the fact that one actor, Edmund Kean, played the same role at two different theaters. Check out the work of artist: Cruikshank, George.
