EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures a scene from William Shakespeare's play, Henry VI, Part I. The image depicts soldiers in the midst of a military misreading, adding an element of humor to the intense atmosphere of warfare. The quote ""For fly he could not, if he would have fled" is taken from Act IV, Scene 4 and perfectly encapsulates the irony portrayed in this artwork. The color lithograph showcases the skillful work of an English School artist from the 19th century. It is part of a private collection and was originally printed in colors by Edmund Evans for Major Seccombe's book on Military Misreadings of Shakspere published around 1880. In this particular scene, soldiers are shown attempting to flee but encountering unexpected obstacles that prevent their escape. The juxtaposition between their desperate desire to fly away and their inability to do so creates a comical situation that adds depth and entertainment value to Shakespeare's timeless play. This print not only highlights the artistic talent involved but also serves as a reminder of how literature can be interpreted differently by individuals with varying perspectives. It celebrates English literature while showcasing both military themes and theatrical elements within its composition. Overall, this artwork invites viewers into a world where war meets comedy through misinterpretation – an intriguing combination that leaves us pondering the complexities found within Shakespearean plays.
