EDITORS COMMENTS
This print commemorates the Shakespeare Jubilee held in Stratford-upon-Avon in the year 1769. The celebration marked the bicentenary of the great playwright and poet's birth, and attracted thousands of visitors from all corners of the kingdom. The image portrays the grand procession making its way through the picturesque town, led by the esteemed actor and manager, David Garrick. Garrick, who played a pivotal role in the revival of Shakespeare's works, is depicted in the center, proudly carrying a laurel wreath and a scroll bearing the inscription "Bicentenary." The print captures the joyous spirit of the occasion, with townspeople lining the streets to pay homage to their beloved bard. The festivities included various theatrical performances, feasts, and pageants, all in celebration of Shakespeare's enduring legacy. The print also showcases the architectural beauty of Stratford-upon-Avon, with its Tudor-style buildings and the iconic Holy Trinity Church, where Shakespeare is buried, serving as the backdrop to the procession. The Shakespeare Jubilee of 1769 was a significant event in the history of Shakespearean studies and performance, and this print offers a fascinating glimpse into the pomp and pageantry of the occasion. It stands as a testament to the enduring influence of Shakespeare's works and the enduring love and admiration of his fellow countrymen for their national treasure.
