EDITORS COMMENTS
- Duke Orsino Listens to Music (1862) This image, titled "Twelfth Night," is a visual representation of a pivotal moment from one of William Shakespeare's most beloved comedies. The scene depicts Duke Orsino (Sir John Gilbert) of Illyria, engrossed in the enchanting melodies of music, as performed by musicians on the stage. The year is 1862, and the Victorian era's elegant and refined aesthetic is on full display. Duke Orsino, a melancholic character, is known for his deep love for music and poetry. In this scene, he seeks solace from his heartache by immersing himself in the soothing sounds of music. The musicians, dressed in their finest attire, play their instruments with great skill and passion, creating a harmonious atmosphere that resonates with the Duke's soul. The stage is set with an ornate backdrop, adorned with intricate designs and rich colors, reflecting the opulence of the era. The play's title, "Twelfth Night," is a reference to the Christian feast day of the same name, celebrated at the end of the Christmas season. This festive occasion is symbolized by the musicians and their instruments, adding to the overall merriment and joy of the scene. This illustration, created in the 1860s, is a testament to the enduring appeal of Shakespeare's works and the power of music to evoke emotion and transport us to another time and place. The image invites us to delve deeper into the world of "Twelfth Night," a comedy filled with love, deception, and the triumph of human spirit.
