Cartoon of A W Pinero, actor and playwright

Cartoon of Sir Arthur Wing Pinero (1855-1934), English actor, playwright and stage director. Seen here outside the Globe Theatre, London, where an adaptation of Thomas Hardy's novel, Far From the Madding Crowd, is in production. Pinero thinks it's very much like his play, The Squire, which he based on Hardy's novel. The irony is that this new production is an adaptation by Hardy himself
