EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures a scene from William Shakespeare's play "Alls Well that Ends Well". The image showcases a colorful lithograph created by the English School in the 19th century. In this particular scene, Act II, Scene 5, we witness soldiers engaged in warfare with an unexpected twist of humor. The quote accompanying the artwork adds depth to the composition: ""And my appointments have in them in a need, greater than shows itself at the first view, to you that know them not. " These words highlight the hidden complexities within these soldiers' roles and their true purpose on the battlefield. It suggests that there is more to their actions than meets the eye for those who are unfamiliar with their mission. The playful nature of this illustration reflects how military misreadings can occur even within Shakespeare's works. Major Seccombe's book "Military Misreadings of Shakspere" explores such humorous interpretations of Shakespearean plays by soldiers during reenactments or theater performances. Overall, this print offers a delightful blend of artistry and literature. It invites viewers to appreciate both the visual aesthetics and intellectual nuances present in Shakespeare's timeless work. Whether one is drawn to its vivid colors or intrigued by its connection between warfare and comedy, this piece serves as a testament to how well it all ends when art seamlessly merges different realms together.
