EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing scene from Shakespeare's beloved play, Twelfth Night. Painted by the talented artist John Callcott Horsley, this oil on canvas masterpiece brings Act II, Scene V to life in vivid detail. The private collection that houses this artwork has graciously allowed us to glimpse into their treasure trove of artistic wonders. In this particular scene, we find ourselves immersed in a beautifully manicured garden where mischief and trickery abound. A diverse cast of characters is depicted here, each with their own unique traits and personalities. Among them are Olivia, Malvolio, and various other figures who contribute to the intricate plot of the play. The setting is adorned with vibrant flora and fauna; a peacock struts proudly amidst the lush greenery while a dog frolics nearby. This idyllic backdrop serves as an enchanting stage for the unfolding drama within Twelfth Night. Horsley's skillful brushstrokes perfectly capture the essence of Shakespearean literature - its wit, charm, and complexity all come alive through his artistry. As we gaze upon this painting, we cannot help but be transported back in time to Elizabethan England when these iconic characters first graced the stage. This print is not only a visual delight but also an homage to one of history's greatest playwrights whose works continue to captivate audiences centuries later. It serves as a reminder that art has no expiration date; it transcends time and remains eternally relevant
