EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical lithograph captures a scene from William Shakespeare's The Tempest, published in 1926. Illustrated by Arthur Rackham, the print depicts Act III: Scene III, Line 19 of the play. In this image, several strange shapes enter the frame, bringing with them a grand banquet fit for a king. The creatures depicted in the illustration are truly fantastical; their pointed beaks and ruff collars add an air of mystery to the scene. They carefully carry platters filled with mouthwatering delicacies such as boar's head, melons, oranges, peaches, grapes, and even a pineapple - all beautifully arranged on ornate plates. The attention to detail is remarkable; each glass and goblet is meticulously crafted and shines brightly in vivid colors. The decanter glistens invitingly as it holds what one can only imagine to be fine wine or spirits. As we gaze upon this enchanting image from Shakespeare's masterpiece brought to life by Rackham's artistic talent, we cannot help but feel transported into Prospero's magical world. It is as if we have been invited to partake in this sumptuous feast alongside the King himself. This historic lithograph now resides within the Historica Graphica Collection - a testament to its enduring beauty and significance. Its presence serves as a reminder of both Shakespeare's timeless storytelling prowess and Rackham's ability to capture imagination through artistry.
