EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the enchanting world of William Shakespeare's Hamlet. At the end of Act II, a snake slithers through a royal crown, creating a powerful and symbolic illustration that encapsulates themes of treachery, betrayal, and disloyalty. The image captures the essence of Shakespeare's timeless play as it delves into the complexities of human nature. The snake represents deceit and cunning, while the royal crown symbolizes power and authority. As these two elements intertwine in this evocative visual representation, we are reminded of the precarious nature of trust within political realms. Published in London in 1890 as part of The Illustrated Library Shakspeare collection by Ken Welsh, this print serves as a testament to both Shakespeare's enduring legacy and Welsh's artistic interpretation. Through his lens, Welsh brings to life one pivotal moment from Hamlet - a tale filled with revenge, love lost, madness feigned - all set against an intricate backdrop woven with themes that resonate across centuries. Whether displayed on its own or as part of a larger collection celebrating literary masterpieces like Hamlet or William Shakespeare himself; this print is sure to captivate viewers with its striking imagery and thought-provoking symbolism.
