Excerpt from Henry Irving
The first time I had the privilege of sketching Sir Henry Irving was just before one of his visits to America, when he gave me several sittings.
My immediate impression as he entered the studio was of a lithe, graceful figure, in a rough pepper-and-salt tweed dress, loosely fitting, quite two sizes too large, yet falling in noble folds about the slim body. Sir Henry seemed by the greatness of his individuality to walk his very clothing into character. One felt, immediately one saw him, the generous soul of the man. Irving's was not a character that held itself aloof.
