In this week's episode, Mary and Julia talk about artists who were inspired by the works of Shakespeare. Who knew you could appreciate art and literature all in one go?
 |
| Puck by Thomas Woolner |
 |
| Hamlet and the Ghost by Henry Fuseli |
 |
| Hamlet and Ophelia by Rossetti |
 |
| King Lear by Benjamin Wilson |
 |
| King Lear by Benjamin West |
Two comparisons you can make of King Lear being painted.Wilon's version was using famous Actor David Garrick in his portrayal. As Mary mentions, this is the "early headshot" method.
 |
| Death of Lady Macbeth by Rosetti |
 |
| Three Witches by Fuseli |
 |
| Prince Hamlet Killing King Claudius by Moreau |
This last piece is an example of the Symbolists portrayal of Shakespeare. This is the last movement to really be inspired by Shakespeare enough to make it their focal point.
