Composer, conductor, theater director and essayist Richard Wagner (b. 5-22-1813, Leipzig; d. 2-13-1883, Venice), is best remembered for his operatic compositions that are called “music dramas”. Wagner wrote both the music and libretto, creating musical dramas with complex plot elements and characters.

This portrait of Richard Wagner, by Sir Leslie Ward, also known as “Spy”, was probably for the British magazine Vanity Fair. Published between 1868 and 1914, Vanity Fair, “A Weekly Show of Political, Social, and Literary Wares” became best known for its caricatures of the rich and famous and was Victorian and Edwardian England's equivalent of an entertainment show. Ward also did a portrait of Mark Twain Sir Winston Churchill, and W. S. Gilbert.
