Autolycus: The Master of Unconsidered Trifles from Shakespeare's 'The Winter's Tale' This image depicts Autolycus, a roguish character from William Shakespeare's late romance play, 'The Winter's Tale,' first produced in 1610/11. Autolycus, a name derived from Greek mythology, was known as a 'snapper-up of unconsidered trifles.' In Shakespeare's play, he is a clever and cunning shepherd who plays a pivotal role in the restoration of the shattered relationships between Leontes, the King of Sicilia, and his estranged family. Autolycus is a versatile character, known for his quick wit, disguises, and ability to manipulate situations to his advantage. He is a master of deception and thievery, but ultimately uses his talents to help bring about the play's happy ending. In Act IV, Scene iv, Autolycus entertains the audience with his song 'Come away, come away, death,' which showcases his charm and charisma. This photograph print, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the world of Shakespearean theatre and the intriguing character of Autolycus. The image captures the essence of the play's themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the transformative power of love. The richly textured costume and the expressive body language of the actor portraying Autolycus bring the character to life, making this print a must-have for any Shakespearean scholar, theatre enthusiast, or collector of historical images.
