George Colman Heir-at-Law JEFFERSON AS DR. PANGLOSS EM Edith Marjorie Ward
This is an illustration / print that has been taken from a book dated 1902 and is ready for framing. Measures approximately 11 x 8 1/2 inches. There is an image text summary on the attached rice paper.
The play is best known for creating the comic character of Dr. Peter Pangloss, a greedy and pompous teacher hired at a salary of 300 pounds a year to tutor merchant Daniel Dowlas, who has been recently elevated to the title of Lord Duberly after the death of a distant cousin. Pangloss refers to himself as an LL.D. and A.S.S. , and the character is fond of spouting off literary quotes which he then attributes in the fashion of Lend me your ears. Shakespeare. Hem! or Verbum sat. Horace. Hem! The surname Pangloss is derived from the character of that name in the 1759 novel Candide by Voltaire, the personal tutor of the main character Candide.
