EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "What shall he have that killed the deer" transports us to a scene of intrigue and drama. Taken from John Gilbert's illustration in The Library Shakespeare, this image captures a pivotal moment from William Shakespeare's play "As You Like It". In Act IV, Scene II of the play, these words are spoken by Rosalind as she questions what reward should be given to someone who successfully hunted down a deer. This particular scene is brought to life through Gilbert's masterful depiction. The composition showcases an English countryside setting with lush greenery and rolling hills as its backdrop. A group of dogs can be seen eagerly chasing after the deer, their determination palpable in their expressions and body language. The tension between man and beast is beautifully captured in this snapshot. This image not only highlights the theme of hunting but also reflects upon broader themes explored within English literature - love, loyalty, and justice. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of Shakespeare's works and how they continue to resonate with audiences across generations. Bridgeman Images has done an exceptional job preserving this piece of art history for us to appreciate today.
