This antique engraving depicts Irish actor Tyrone Power (1795–1841) in the role of Corporal O'Connor from the opera *Broken Promises*. Power was known for his comic stage performances and was a prominent figure in 19th-century theater. This engraving is based on an original portrait by the artist Vogel and captures Power in full theatrical costume, likely created during or shortly after the height of his stage career.
The print is signed and presented behind glass with period-appropriate matting in a carved gold giltwood frame with black velvet detailing. On the reverse is a old letter, hand-typed on a typewriter, providing historical context about Power and his life.
This piece represents a specific moment in 19th-century theatrical history and is ideal for collectors of antique portraiture, opera memorabilia, or early theatrical ephemera. The combination of subject matter, historical relevance, and presentation make it a notable decorative and collectible work.
