Mr. E. Davenport - from a daguerreotype by Mayall, 1854. Portrait of American actor Edward Loomis Davenport. '...in December, 1849, he appeared in conjunction with [Anna Cora Mowatt] at the Theatre Royal, Manchester, in the "Lady of Lyons." The press awarded him unqualified praise, as the best American actor who had visited England. His nightly triumphs beside the eminent Macready; his great successes when placed in the scale with G. Y. Brooke; and his marked excellence when standing alone, all give sanction to this one opinion; and he now returns to his native land, bearing with him the best wishes of troops of friends...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
