EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Philip now learned that he was the son of King Richard" takes us back to the pages of Shakespeare's stories of the English Kings. Published in 1912 by George Harrap & Son, this color lithograph brings to life a pivotal moment in history. The artist, Gertrude E. Demain Hammond, skillfully captures the essence of revelation and discovery through her intricate brushstrokes. The scene depicts Philip, a central character in Richard II, as he learns about his true lineage - that he is indeed the son of King Richard himself. Seated amidst a regal setting befitting royalty, Philip's face reflects a mix of astonishment and awe at this newfound knowledge. The rich colors and attention to detail transport us to 14th century England during the reign of Richard II. Hammond's portrayal not only highlights the dramatic nature of Shakespearean plays but also showcases her talent as an illustrator. Her ability to convey emotions through art is evident in every stroke. As we gaze upon this print from our private collection, we are reminded once again of Shakespeare's enduring legacy and how his words continue to inspire artists across generations. This piece serves as a visual testament to both Hammond's artistic prowess and Shakespeare's timeless storytelling abilities.
