EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical illustration captures a pivotal moment from William Shakespeare's beloved play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Created by the talented artist Arthur Rackham in 1908, this colour lithograph brings to life the iconic scene where the character Nick Bottom pleads with his fellow actors, "Let me play the lion too!". The image showcases a group of characters known as The Mechanicals, who are rehearsing for their upcoming performance within the play. In Act 1 Scene 2, we witness Snug, Tom Snout, Robin Starveling, and Francis Flute listening intently as Peter Quince presents them with their respective roles. However, it is Nick Bottom who steals the spotlight in this particular depiction. With an eager expression on his face and donning a lion's mask atop his head, Bottom exudes enthusiasm and ambition. His desire to take on every role imaginable reflects both his comedic nature and unwavering dedication to theater. This humorous moment perfectly encapsulates Shakespeare's exploration of human folly and theatricality. Rackham masterfully captures each character's unique personality through intricate details and vivid colors. From Snug's bewildered expression to Flute clutching his script nervously – every element contributes to the overall charm of this artwork. As we gaze upon this enchanting print from Fine Art Finder's Stapleton Collection, we are transported back in time – immersing ourselves in Shakespearean drama while appreciating Rackham’s artistic brilliance.
