EDITORS COMMENTS
The poignant print captures a moment of heart-wrenching farewell between Gaunt and his son, as depicted in Shakespeare's stories of the English Kings. Published in 1912 by George Harrap & Son, this colour lithograph by Gertrude E. Demain Hammond beautifully portrays the emotional depth of the scene. Gaunt, portrayed as an old nobleman clad in armor, stands tall with a sense of dignity and sorrow. His eyes reflect both resignation and determination as he gazes upon his departing son. The weight of their impending separation is palpable, for Gaunt knows deep within that they will never see each other again. This illustration not only showcases Hammond's artistic talent but also highlights the timeless themes explored by William Shakespeare himself. It delves into the complexities of family bonds, duty to one's country, and sacrifice for a greater cause. As we observe this father bidding farewell to his child, we are reminded of the universal experience of parting ways with loved ones. The image evokes feelings of empathy and nostalgia while capturing the essence of human emotions that transcend time and place. Through its intricate details and masterful use of color, this artwork invites us to reflect on our own relationships and cherish every precious moment spent with those dear to us.
