Garrick's Richard III is undoubtedly the centre of this image his wild staring eyes and deep set frown convey an expression of utter terror, his legs angled as if prepared to flee from the demons that haunt him and his outstretched hand, fingers splayed wide, as if he can fend off the characters from his nightmare, all draw your eye.
