EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Globe Theatre, a historical gem that stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of William Shakespeare. Captured in this engraving by Wenceslaus Hollar and published by Robert Wilkinson in 1810, it offers us a glimpse into the grandeur of this renowned playhouse during its heyday. Built in 1598 on London's South Bank, The Globe Theatre was not only an architectural marvel but also served as the primary venue for most of Shakespeare's plays. Sadly, tragedy struck when it burned down in 1613, only to be rebuilt shortly after. However, with the rise of Puritan influence during that era, The Globe was closed down in 1642. The image beautifully captures the Elizabethan architecture and cityscape surrounding The Globe Theatre. Its intricate details transport us back to a time when audiences would gather eagerly to witness Shakespeare's masterpieces unfold on stage. As we admire this remarkable piece from the Stapleton Collection, let us remember William Shakespeare himself - one of history's greatest playwrights whose works continue to inspire and captivate audiences worldwide. This print serves as a poignant reminder of his immense contribution to literature and theater.
