EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of theatrical brilliance from William Shakespeare's Measure for Measure. The scene depicted is Act I, Scene 4, where Miss Glyn portrays the character Isabella and Mr Hoskins takes on the role of Lucio. Miss Glyn, dressed in an exquisite costume that exudes elegance and grace, embodies the pious nature of Isabella perfectly. Her eyes are filled with determination as she delivers her lines with utmost conviction. Meanwhile, Mr Hoskins brings life to Lucio with his charismatic presence and impeccable comedic timing. The actors' chemistry is palpable as they engage in a lively exchange amidst an intricately designed set adorned with arabesque patterns. A border featuring verses from the play adds depth to this already mesmerizing composition. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness Miss Glyn's portrayal of Isabella as a novice nun grappling with moral dilemmas while trying to save her brother Claudio from unjust punishment. The image beautifully captures both the seriousness and vulnerability of Isabella's character. This remarkable daguerreotype by Paine of Islington has been skillfully engraved by an unknown English artist from the 19th century. It now resides within a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. With its rich historical significance and artistic beauty, this print serves as a testament to the enduring power of Shakespearean theater and reminds us why these timeless works continue to captivate audiences around the world today.
