![]() ![]() Garrick is the centre pin to the entire picture, his posture depicting the action and movement of the scene, creating suspense from the promise of what will happen next and suggesting the drama of what has happened up until this point. The image shows Hogarth's depiction of Garrick as Richard III, awakening from his horrifying dream in Act 5 Scene 3, in which he sees a parade of the ghosts of his murder victims. 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.
