EDITORS COMMENTS
Merry Wives of Windsor: Falstaff's Humiliating Dunk in the Thames (Act III, Scene v) In this image from the Mary Evans Picture Library, we witness a pivotal moment from Shakespeare's comedy, The Merry Wives of Windsor. In Act III, Scene v, the mischievous and boastful Sir John Falstaff (1597) meets his comeuppance at the hands of his deceived wives, Mistress Page and Mistress Ford. The scene unfolds as Falstaff, believing he has seduced both women, arranges to meet them at the same time and place, intending to enjoy their affections one after the other. However, the wives have concocted a clever plan to teach him a lesson. They fill a laundry basket with dirty clothes and linen, luring Falstaff to the riverbank under the pretense of a romantic rendezvous. As Falstaff eagerly approaches, the women tip the basket, and the unsuspecting knight tumbles in, plunging into the cold waters of the Thames. The image captures the moment of Falstaff's humiliation, as he is submerged in the basket, surrounded by the discarded laundry and the amused faces of his wives. This historical photograph, taken in 1910, offers a glimpse into the theatrical production of the time, showcasing the elaborate costumes and set design. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of Shakespeare's plays and the timeless nature of his comedies. With their clever wit and intricate plots, the Merry Wives of Windsor continue to captivate audiences, and this iconic scene remains a favorite among Shakespeare enthusiasts and theatre-goers alike.
