EDITORS COMMENTS
O My Fair Warrior!", plate five from Theodore Chasseriau's series based on Shakespeare's "Othello" (1844), captures a poignant moment from the tragic love story between Othello and Desdemona. The black and white etching on ivory chine laid down on white wove paper, created by the French artist, depicts Desdemona, with an expression of deep devotion and love, speaking to her husband Othemoor, the Moor of Venice. The coastal background sets the scene of their idyllic marriage, now threatened by the treacherous manipulations of Iago. Theodore Chasseriau masterfully employed the techniques of etching and engraving roulette and drypoint to bring the characters to life. In this plate, Desdemona, dressed in elegant attire, is shown with her hand outstretched in a pledge of loyalty and love, while Othello, with a thoughtful and introspective gaze, listens to his wife's words. The presence of Princess Rossetta in the background adds an intriguing layer to the narrative, hinting at the complex web of relationships and alliances that fuel the drama. This print, a testament to Chasseriau's artistic skill and understanding of Shakespeare's work, invites viewers to delve deeper into the timeless themes of love, trust, and betrayal. The Art Institute of Chicago, a renowned art center and gallery, is privileged to house this significant work of art from the 19th century, allowing generations to appreciate and be moved by its powerful imagery.
