EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant illustration captures a scene from William Shakespeare's comedic play, "The Merry Wives of Windsor". Titled ""Come on sirrah-answer your master, be not afraid, " the print showcases the remarkable talent of artist Hugh Thomson. Published in 1910 by Heinemann, this colorful lithograph brings to life the lively characters and intricate costumes that define this beloved theatrical masterpiece. In the forefront of the image, we see Mistress Quickly, a witty and mischievous character who plays an essential role in orchestrating humorous situations throughout the play. She stands beside Mrs. Page, another prominent figure known for her intelligence and quick thinking. Behind them looms Sir John Falstaff, a larger-than-life character whose attempts at seducing these merry wives provide endless entertainment. The parson Evans can also be seen in conversation with William Page. Thomson's attention to detail is evident in his depiction of Windsor itself—a picturesque English town serving as the backdrop for this delightful comedy. With its charming architecture and lush greenery, it transports viewers into Shakespeare's world. This print serves as a testament to both Thomson's artistic prowess and Shakespeare's enduring legacy. It invites us to immerse ourselves in an enchanting tale filled with love triangles, mistaken identities, and uproarious humor—an invitation impossible to resist for any lover of literature or theater.
