EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white wood engraving takes us back to the enchanting world of William Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Created in 1874 by the skilled hands of German painter Paul Thumann, this print beautifully captures the essence of this timeless play. In the foreground, we see a group of girls and women, their delicate features illuminated by moonlight filtering through a dense forest. Their flowing gowns and ethereal expressions suggest they are under some magical spell. As our eyes wander deeper into the image, we catch a glimpse of Oberon, one of the central characters in Shakespeare's play. With his regal presence and commanding gaze, he exudes an air of power and mystery. The intricate details achieved through wood engraving bring life to every leaf on each tree trunk surrounding these mystical figures. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to this scene from "A Midsummer Night's Dream" enhancing its dreamlike quality. This print is not just a mere reproduction; it is an art form in itself that transports us into Shakespeare's whimsical realm. It serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed since its creation, "A Midsummer Night's Dream" continues to captivate audiences with its magic and allure.
