EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Give us kind keepers, Heavens!-what were these?", we are transported into the mystical world of William Shakespeare's play, The Tempest. Created by the talented artist Paul Vincent Woodroffe in 1908, this illustration beautifully captures a pivotal moment from the story. The image depicts a tempestuous storm raging on an isolated island. The costumes worn by the characters evoke a sense of enchantment and mystery. At the center of it all stands Prospero, a powerful wizard who has been banished to this desolate place along with his daughter Miranda. With his hands raised towards the heavens, he pleads for mercy and protection against unknown forces that have suddenly appeared before him. Woodroffe's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of this color lithograph. From the intricate patterns on Prospero's robe to the wild waves crashing against jagged rocks in the background, each element contributes to an atmosphere filled with tension and anticipation. This artwork not only showcases Woodroffe's artistic prowess but also pays homage to Shakespeare's timeless tale of betrayal, revenge, and forgiveness. It serves as a visual reminder of how literature can come alive through artistry and imagination. Displayed proudly in private collections worldwide, this print continues to captivate viewers with its evocative portrayal of one of Shakespeare's most beloved plays - The Tempest.
