EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Shakespeare, 1776" takes us back in time to the world of one of history's greatest playwrights. Created by artist T Cook for The Copper-Plate Magazine or A Monthly Treasure in London, this portrait showcases the enigmatic personality of William Shakespeare. The image depicts a distinguished man with a mask resting on his lap, symbolizing the theatrical nature of his work. His piercing gaze suggests an intellect that transcends time and space. Surrounding him are elements that represent different facets of his artistry - a trumpet representing music, a lyre symbolizing poetry, and various masks signifying the diverse characters he brought to life on stage. Through this engraving from the late 18th century, we catch a glimpse into Shakespeare's occupation as a playwright during the 16th and 17th centuries in Britain. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and texture to this historical portrayal. As we admire this print by o' De', we are reminded of Shakespeare's enduring legacy. His works continue to captivate audiences worldwide even after four centuries. This artwork serves as both homage to his genius and an invitation for us to delve deeper into the timeless themes explored within his plays.
