Sweet Anne Page

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating painting by renowned Victorian artist George Dunlop Leslie (1835-1921), depicting the eponymous character from William Shakespeare's comedy "The Merry Wives of Windsor." Commissioned by The Graphic for their Christmas Number in 1888, this masterpiece is part of a series of Shakespearean heroines brought to life by some of the most distinguished artists of the era. Anne Page, a beautiful and intelligent young woman, is shown wearing a striking hat adorned with feathers and ribbons, a fashionable accessory of the time. Her expression is playful and mischievous, hinting at the wit and intelligence that lies beneath her charming exterior. Leslie's expert use of light and color brings the painting to life, capturing the essence of Anne's character and the spirit of the play. The Merry Wives of Windsor is one of Shakespeare's lesser-known comedies, but it is filled with humor, intrigue, and memorable characters. Anne Page is the object of desire for two suitors, each trying to win her hand in marriage. In true Shakespearean fashion, the plot is filled with twists and turns, as Anne outwits both suitors and ultimately chooses her own husband. George Dunlop Leslie was a Scottish painter and member of the Royal Academy, known for his portraits and genre scenes. His interpretation of Anne Page is a testament to his skill as a painter and his understanding of Shakespeare's characters. This beautiful painting is a must-have for any collection of Shakespearean art or for those who appreciate the beauty and wit of Victorian art.
