EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph print showcases Touchstone, a beloved character from Shakespeare's play "As You Like It". In this illustration, created by an English School artist in the 20th century, Touchstone is depicted as a jester-like figure wearing a vibrant circus costume. The image transports us to the enchanting Forest of Arden where Touchstone accompanies Rosalind and Celia on their adventures. The lithograph print is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Arthur Mee's book "Little Treasure Island - Her Story and Her Glory" published by Hodder & Stoughton Limited in London around 1920. This evocative artwork captures the essence of Touchstone's role as both entertainer and confidant to the main characters. Set against a backdrop of pine and spruce trees, the forest scenery adds depth to the composition, emphasizing the connection between nature and theater. The intricate costume design highlights Touchstone's playful personality while also reflecting historical attire worn by court jesters during that era. With its rich history, literature enthusiasts will appreciate this exquisite depiction of one of Shakespeare's most memorable characters. Whether displayed in homes or galleries, this fine art print invites viewers into an imaginative world filled with laughter, drama, and timeless storytelling.
