EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Hamlet Corpse Polonius" is a second state print created in 1835 by the renowned French artist Eugene Delacroix. Measuring at 10 1/16 x 6 15/16 inches (25.5 x 17.7 cm), this image is part of Delacroix's series of lithographs dedicated to capturing the essence of Shakespeare's tragic play, Hamlet. In this particular scene, Delacroix skillfully depicts the troubled psyche of Prince Hamlet as he stands over the lifeless body of Polonius, one of the play's pivotal characters. The artist's highly personal and dramatic style shines through in this piece, creating a moody and introspective atmosphere that mirrors Hamlet's own inner turmoil. Delacroix carefully chooses key scenes and poetic passages from the play to bring to life through his artistry. His ability to convey complex emotions and psychological depth makes these lithographs truly exceptional. During the nineteenth century in France, there was a growing interest in Shakespearean works, which led artists like Delacroix to explore new ways of interpreting these timeless stories visually. This unique print showcases both Delacroix's artistic talent and his fascination with Shakespearean themes. The "Hamlet Corpse Polonius" lithograph by Artokoloro offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the world of Shakespeare through Eugene Delacroix's masterful interpretation. It serves as a testament to both the enduring legacy
