EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the beloved play "As You Like It" by William Shakespeare. Illustrated by Howard Davie, it is taken from the Children's Stories from Shakespeare book published by Raphael Tuck & Sons Ltd. in London. The image showcases three central characters: Rosalind, Celia, and Touchstone. In this particular moment, Rosalind disguises herself as a knave while her loyal cousin Celia stands beside her. The mischievous jester Touchstone completes the trio. Set against the backdrop of a lush forest, symbolizing banishment and freedom, these characters find themselves entangled in a web of love and mistaken identities. As they navigate through the Forest of Arden, their journey becomes an exploration of self-discovery and true love. Rosalind's disguise as a boy adds an element of intrigue to the story. With her tomboyish charm and wit, she captivates both men and women alike throughout the play. Davie's illustration beautifully captures the essence of these vibrant characters within this enchanting setting. The attention to detail brings out their personalities - Rosalind's determination shines through her eyes while Celia exudes loyalty with every gesture. This timeless artwork serves as a reminder of Shakespeare's enduring legacy in literature and theater for audiences young and old alike.
