Cartoon, Dion Boucicault and three other actors

Cartoon of Dion Boucicault (?1820-1890), Irish actor and playwright -- Address to the Players. Indicating a poster behind him, he says that no actor could play Romeo with legs like that -- a reference to Henry Irving's recent production at the Lyceum Theatre in which he played Romeo. Irving is on the left; also present are William Creswick (centre) and Augustus Harris (right)
