EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in theatrical history - the first appearance of William Shakespeare on the stage of the iconic Globe Theatre. Painted by the talented British artist George Cruikshank in 1864, this oil on canvas artwork beautifully depicts part of Shakespeare's dramatic company alongside him. The scene is filled with enchantment and intrigue, as fairies flit about, bats hang from above, and animals rest peacefully nearby. The theater itself is adorned with grand curtains and a magnificent proscenium arch, symbolizing the grandeur of this historic occasion. Shakespeare stands proudly center stage, donning an elaborate mask and costume fit for a king. His presence commands attention as he prepares to deliver his timeless words to an eager audience. This painting serves as a testament to Shakespeare's enduring legacy and his profound impact on literature and theater. Dated in brown paint at the lower right corner "1864 & 5", this drawing was made by Cruikshank himself over two centuries after Shakespeare's debut performance. It showcases not only Cruikshank's artistic prowess but also his deep admiration for one of Britain's greatest playwrights. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the magic that unfolded during that fateful day in 1564 when William Shakespeare took his rightful place on the stage of the Globe Theatre.
