EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Yet must die plate 11 Othello Act 5 Scene 2" takes us back to the year 1844 when Théodore Chassériau, a talented French artist, etched this masterpiece. The scene depicts a pivotal moment from Shakespeare's renowned play Othello, specifically Act 5 Scene 2. Chassériau's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. The use of roulette and drypoint adds depth and texture to the characters' expressions, bringing them to life on the paper. This particular print is part of a series commissioned by Piot, inspired by Shakespeare's works. The young artist chose a linear technique for this piece, showcasing his artistic prowess and innovation within the art world at that time. It is worth noting that Chassériau created these illustrations just one year after Delacroix had produced his ground-breaking Hamlet lithographs. Measuring approximately 14⅞ x 10⅜ inches (36.7 x 26.3 cm), this second edition print was reprinted in the year 1900 for wider distribution among art enthusiasts. Its inclusion in Gazette des Beaux Arts further solidifies its significance within the artistic community. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported into Othello's tragic world - where love turns into jealousy and ultimately leads to destruction. Chassériau masterfully captures both the emotional intensity and dramatic tension present in Act
