EDITORS COMMENTS
is a timeless work of literature by William Shakespeare, and this print by Joyce Mercer brings the magical moment between Titania and Bottom to life. Circa 1924, this illustration showcases the enchanting scene where Titania, the queen of the fairies, tenderly places her hand on Bottom's illuminated head, declaring, "I'll kiss thy fair large ears, my gentle joy." Mercer's masterful use of color and detail creates a whimsical atmosphere, with Titania's ethereal figure bathed in moonlight and Bottom's rough, earthy form illuminated by the glow of enchantment. The artist's delicate brushstrokes capture the essence of the moment, as Titania's gentle touch transforms Bottom from a mere mortal into an object of her affection. The print's intricate details, such as the delicate flowers in Titania's hair and the intricate patterns on her gown, add to the overall enchantment of the scene. The use of soft pastels and muted colors further emphasizes the dreamlike quality of the moment, transporting viewers to the magical realm of Shakespeare's beloved play. Joyce Mercer's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is a beautiful and captivating work of art that brings the magical world of Shakespeare's play to life. This print is a must-have for any Shakespearean scholar, art collector, or lover of the written word. Whether displayed in a home or office, this print is sure to inspire wonder and delight.
