EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment from William Shakespeare's renowned play, King Lear. In this scene, Lear, the central character of the play, is convinced that his beloved daughter Cordelia does not love him and consequently banishes her. Published in London in 1890 as part of The Illustrated Library Shakspeare collection, this illustration by Ken Welsh beautifully depicts the emotional intensity of this heart-wrenching exchange. The image showcases Lear's anguish and despair as he confronts Cordelia with his misguided belief. His face reflects a mixture of sorrow and anger while Cordelia stands before him with an expression filled with sadness and confusion. The artist masterfully conveys their complex emotions through intricate details such as their body language and facial expressions. Shakespeare's exploration of themes like love, betrayal, power dynamics, and family relationships resonates strongly in this particular scene. It serves as a poignant reminder of the consequences that can arise when misunderstandings cloud our judgment. Ken Welsh's skillful interpretation breathes life into these iconic characters from one of Shakespeare's greatest tragedies. This print offers viewers an opportunity to delve deeper into the world created by the playwright over four centuries ago – a timeless tale that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
