EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "La Tempete" transports us into the enchanting world of William Shakespeare's play, The Tempest. Created by Artus Scheiner in 1880, this illustration beautifully depicts Prospero, accompanied by his daughter Miranda, Ariel the airy spirit, and the monstrous Caliban. The image showcases a dramatic scene from the play where magic and supernatural elements intertwine with human emotions and desires. Prospero, portrayed as a powerful magician or wizard-like figure, stands at the center of attention. His commanding presence exudes both wisdom and authority. Miranda gazes adoringly at her father while Ariel hovers above them like an ethereal being. With delicate wings and an otherworldly aura surrounding him, Ariel represents the fantastical element that permeates throughout The Tempest. In contrast to Ariel's elegance, Caliban lurks in the shadows as a grotesque creature embodying primal instincts and rebellion against Prospero's rule. This juxtaposition between beauty and monstrosity adds depth to Shakespeare's exploration of power dynamics within society. Scheiner's use of color further enhances this theatrical composition. Vibrant hues bring life to each character while also emphasizing their individual roles within the narrative. As we gaze upon this historic artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of literature's ability to transport us beyond reality into worlds filled with magic and wonder.
