EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled ""And yet I needs must curse", illustration from The Tempest" takes us on a journey into the enchanting world of Shakespeare's famous play. Created by Paul Vincent Woodroffe in 1908, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of The Tempest. The image transports us to a stormy island where Prospero, a powerful wizard banished from his kingdom, seeks revenge against those who wronged him. Dressed in intricate costumes that reflect the time period, each character comes to life before our eyes. In the center of the composition stands Prospero himself, with an air of authority and determination. His magical powers are evident as he commands the elements around him during this tempestuous moment. Surrounding him are other key figures such as King Alonzo of Naples and Antonio, Prospero's treacherous brother. Miranda, Prospero's daughter and a symbol of innocence amidst chaos, is also present in this scene. Her wide-eyed expression suggests both fear and curiosity as she witnesses her father's extraordinary abilities for the first time. Caliban, a deformed creature representing primal instincts and rebellion against authority, lurks in the shadows nearby. This diverse cast of characters adds depth to Shakespeare's tale and highlights themes such as power struggles and forgiveness. Woodroffe masterfully brings these complex personalities to life through his detailed illustrations. This timeless artwork serves as a reminder of Shakespeare's enduring legacy and invites viewers to immerse themselves
