EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in William Shakespeare's play, "King Henry IV Part One" specifically Act IV, Scene II. The scene depicts the eloquent and charismatic Henry Prince of Wales delivering a powerful speech while Falstaff, his loyal companion, succumbs to exhaustion and sweats profusely until he eventually collapses onto the barren ground. Drawn and etched by the talented artist George Cruikshank for the Illustrated Library Shakspeare in London 1890, this illustration beautifully portrays the stark contrast between these two characters. While Prince Henry stands tall and confident, exuding regal poise as he speaks with conviction, Falstaff is depicted as a disheveled figure who literally lards (sweats) himself to death. Cruikshank's attention to detail brings this dramatic scene to life. The viewer can almost feel the weight of Falstaff's sweat dripping from his brow as he struggles along. This visual representation perfectly encapsulates Shakespeare's brilliant characterization of both individuals - one embodying honor and responsibility while the other represents indulgence and excess. Ken Welsh has skillfully captured this historic artwork through photography printing techniques that preserve its original essence. This print serves as a testament to Shakespeare's enduring legacy and Cruikshank's artistic prowess. It invites viewers into an immersive experience where they can witness firsthand the clash between virtue and vice within "King Henry IV Part One. "
