EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the enchanting world of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. The image captures a pivotal moment in Act I Scene 5, where the curtains are drawn to reveal a mesmerizing tableau. A female character, veiled and dressed in mourning attire, takes center stage as she mourns her lost love. The illustration is taken from Tales from Shakespeare by Charles and Mary Lamb, published in 1905. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring life to this scene, evoking a sense of drama and intrigue. We can almost feel the tension in the air as we witness this poignant interaction unfold. In this comedy of mistaken identities and disguises, characters play their roles with finesse. Viola, disguised as Cesario - a page serving Olivia - stands beside her mistress who remains unaware of Viola's true identity. This clever deception adds an element of suspense to the narrative. Through this image, we glimpse into the complex web woven by William Shakespeare's masterful storytelling. It invites us to delve deeper into his timeless works that continue to captivate audiences across generations. Displayed within The Stapleton Collection at Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, this print serves as a reminder of both the enduring power of art and literature alike. It encourages us to explore further into these rich narratives that have shaped our cultural heritage for centuries.
