EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John Flaxman's exquisite pen, ink, and wash creation titled "Puck. Aye there it is" from 1783. The artwork measures 26.7x18.7 cm and is housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art, Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. Derived from William Shakespeare's renowned play "A Midsummer Night's Dream" this piece captures the mischievous character of Puck with great finesse. Flaxman expertly brings to life the goblin-like sprite through his intricate illustration technique. The image forms part of a collection featuring seventeen sketches primarily depicting Mrs Siddons as Titania (from "A Midsummer Night's Dream") or Constance (from "King John"). Additionally, Flaxman includes a sketch of Kemble as Hamlet and a study of Puck within this remarkable series. With its rich detail and expressive portrayal, this artwork encapsulates the essence of Shakespearean drama. It serves as a testament to both Flaxman's artistic prowess and Shakespeare's enduring influence on literature and art. As an out-of-copyright masterpiece, this print by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate the depth and complexity of Flaxman's work while immersing ourselves in the enchanting world created by William Shakespeare centuries ago.
