EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Shakespeare - Pericles: Who is the first that doth prefer himself? (a procession of suitors for his daughter Thaisa)" and dating back to the 1830s, depicts a scene from the late Shakespearean play "Pericles, Prince of Tyre." In this scene, King Pericles of Tyre, portrayed by the regal figure on horseback, is surrounded by a procession of eager suitors seeking the hand of his beloved daughter Thaisa. The scene is set against a grand backdrop of a throne room adorned with intricate Greek motifs, symbolizing the play's rich cultural heritage. King Pericles, dressed in white and holding a shield, sits proudly atop his white horse, his expression one of contemplation as he considers the suitors before him. The first suitor, shown kneeling at the king's feet, eagerly presents himself, no doubt hoping to win the hand of the fair princess. The image, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Shakespeare's works and the timeless nature of the themes explored in "Pericles," a late romance that delves into the complexities of love, loss, and redemption. The scene captured in this photograph offers a glimpse into the rich world of Shakespearean drama and the intrigue and excitement of a royal court in full swing. The image's intricate details, from the ornate throne room decor to the meticulously crafted costumes, transport us back in time and offer a glimpse into the world of Shakespeare's plays as they were once experienced by audiences in the 19th century.
