I'm working on pictures of Mowatt in all of her major roles. Here she is costumed as Gertrude in Act I of "Fashion." #AnnaCoraMowatt #Theatrehistory
Visualization of how Mowatt might have appeared in the role of Blanche in her 1849 play "Armand; or the Peer and the Peasant." #AnnaCoraMowatt
This is the profile from the The Illustrated American Biography (vol. 3 (1855), p. 255) portrait remixed with hair from the Harral portrait. #AnnaCoraMowatt
This “created” theatrical poster was purely for fun. I don’t think Mowatt ever played Titania. I’m researching the Christmas pantomimes of 1849. The one at the Marylebone had a distinctly “fairy” theme. Was Mowatt the writer’s muse?
This portrait comes from Abner D. Jones, ed. The Illustrated American Biography, vol. 3 (1855), p. 255. I feel confident in my minor corrections to Mowatt’s brow and eyelids here because this portrait is based on the photo used for her 1854 autobiography. #AnnaCoraMowatt

Still working on my bio of Walter Watts. Here's an interior of his 1850 re-model of the Royal Olympic Theater in London
