EDITORS COMMENTS

This exquisite piece is part of The Complete Works of Shakespeare published by George Harrap & Co Ltd in the 1920s and features a color lithograph created by Holbein the Younger. The image captures a pivotal moment from King John, one of Shakespeare's lesser-known historical plays. The scene depicts King John pleading with his loyal servant Hubert to spare the life of a young boy. Gertrude Demain Hammond's artistic interpretation beautifully brings this emotionally charged encounter to life.
