Description

Alfred Tennyson's success with In Memoriam (1850) was exceptional: the poem helped define an age in poetry. But eventually it was a success that turned against him. Max Beerbohm's drawing "Mr. Tennyson reading In Memoriam to his Sovereign" (1904) made fun of the poet's special relationship with the Queen in a shared bond of grief, recognizing camp theatricality.
