EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic balcony scene from Shakespeare's timeless tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. Created by Austrian artist Hans Makart in the late 19th century, this colour lithograph depicts a tender moment between two young lovers amidst an enchanting backdrop. The costumes worn by the characters add a touch of historical charm to the scene, transporting us back to Tudor-era Europe. The girl is dressed in a delicate nightdress while her suitor dons tights and theatrical attire. Their embrace exudes both passion and innocence, symbolizing the intensity of their forbidden love. The balcony itself becomes a stage for their romance, as they lean towards each other against a moonlit sky. This postcard reproduction from the early 20th century preserves Makart's exquisite painting with remarkable detail. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of Shakespeare's enduring legacy and his ability to capture universal themes such as love and tragedy. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst societal constraints and family feuds, true love can blossom. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this artwork from its private collection, allowing us to appreciate Makart's artistic genius for generations to come. Whether you are an admirer of fine art or simply captivated by tales of star-crossed lovers, this print is sure to evoke emotions of longing and compassion within you.
