EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intense emotion from Shakespeare's beloved play, "Twelfth Night". Poor Viola, portrayed with great vulnerability and depth by the actress, feared to even look upon her own sword. The image is taken from the renowned publication "Tales from Shakespeare" by Ward Lock & Co Ltd in the 1930-40s. The color lithograph beautifully brings out the intricate details of the costumes and sets, transporting us back to a time when theater was at its grandest. The dramatic lighting adds an air of mystery and suspense to this scene. Viola's internal struggle is palpable as she contemplates her next move in this tale filled with comedy and tragedy. Shakespeare's genius shines through as he weaves together themes of mistaken identity, unrequited love, and self-discovery. Viola's character embodies resilience and determination amidst chaos and confusion. This particular moment showcases her inner turmoil as she grapples with her dual identity while navigating treacherous waters of romance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded once again why William Shakespeare remains one of history's greatest playwrights. His ability to capture human emotions so vividly continues to resonate with audiences across generations. This print serves as a timeless reminder that within every tragic circumstance lies the potential for growth and transformation – a testament to both Shakespeare’s enduring legacy and our shared humanity on life’s tumultuous stage.
