Notes |
From Boydell's Shakespeare Gallery. This print is one in a series published by the Boydell Shakespeare Gallery, a project founded by the engraver, printmaker, and publisher, John Boydell. Boydell brought together many of Britain's most famous artists to work on the project, including Sir Joshua Reynolds, Henry Fuseli, and George Romney. The resurgent interest in Shakespeare during the late 18th century eventually inspired Boydell to publish a 'magnificent and accurate' illustrated edition of Shakespeare's works. Condition: Small worm hole to left margin, although covered by mount. A few spots of discolouration to upper and right margins. |
