EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back to the 16th century as we witness a tender moment between Juliet and her trusted confidante, the Nurse. Created by artist Samuel Sangster in 1870, this enchanting scene is taken from Charles Knight's renowned publication "The Works of Shakspere". Set against the backdrop of rural England, Sangster skillfully captures the essence of Shakespeare's tragic play "Romeo & Juliet". Dressed in elegant period attire, Juliet appears vulnerable yet resolute as she leans on her walking stick for support. The Nurse stands faithfully beside her, embodying both profession and protective love. Henry Perronet Briggs' intricate engraving brings depth to each character's expression - their faces filled with emotion that transcends time. This monochrome masterpiece transports us into a world where literature meets artistry. As we gaze upon this image, it becomes evident that Shakespearean drama has found its visual counterpart through Sangster's skilled hand. The delicate balance between fiction and reality is beautifully portrayed here; a testament to the enduring power of William Shakespeare's works. This print serves as a reminder of how art can transport us across centuries and evoke profound emotions within our souls. It is an exquisite representation of two iconic characters brought to life by talented artists who have left an indelible mark on British culture and beyond.
