Mrs. Duff (Classic Reprint)

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from Mrs. Duff Acknowledged without dispute for many years as the first tragic actress of our stage, it is certain that she had never been equalled by any predecessor, and very doubtful if she has been surpassed, even by 3. Rachel or a Ristori, among those who have succeeded her. She was endowed by nature with every mental faculty and every physical requisite for pure tragedy, and in that distinct line, and in that line only, education and experience raised her (in the opinion Of the writer) to the highest rank ever attained on the stage Of America. She possessed a person of more than medium height, and of the most perfect symmetry, not so commanding, perhaps, as that Of Mrs. Siddons.
