EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, immersing us in the enchanting world of William Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice". The scene depicted is Act V, Scene I, where we find ourselves on Belmont Avenue, leading up to Portia's house. In this beautifully detailed illustration from the Boydell Shakespeare Gallery, created by talented artist William Hodges, we witness a moment filled with anticipation and romance. Lorenzo and Stephano accompany Jessica as they approach Portia's grand residence. The contrast between their black attire and the pristine white architecture of the house creates a striking visual effect. As our eyes wander through this image, we can almost feel the excitement building in the air. It seems that love is about to blossom amidst these elegant surroundings. Perhaps Lorenzo and Jessica are embarking on a secret rendezvous or planning an escape together. The intricate details captured in this print transport us into another era—a time when plays like "The Merchant of Venice" were performed live on stage for eager audiences seeking entertainment and enlightenment. Ken Welsh has masterfully preserved this historical moment through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both the artistic beauty of Hodges' painting and the enduring legacy of Shakespeare's timeless play. This print serves as a reminder that great works of literature continue to inspire generations long after their creation.
