EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "It was a Lover, 1895" takes us back to the enchanting world of Shakespearean poetry. The image, originally featured in The Magazine of Art in 1895, showcases a scene from As You Like It, Act V Scene III. In this mesmerizing illustration by Leonard Leslie Brooke, we witness an intimate moment between two lovers. Dressed in exquisite Elizabethan fashion, the couple stands hand-in-hand amidst a picturesque countryside backdrop. The woman's elegant attire includes a stunning jacket and headgear adorned with intricate details while her male counterpart dons a stylish doublet and hose. The artist skillfully captures the essence of love through their tender embrace and affectionate gaze. Their connection is palpable as they embody the timeless themes of romance found within Shakespeare's verses. Brooke's monochrome interpretation transports us to Victorian England, evoking nostalgia for an era steeped in artistry and poetic expression. This print serves as both a visual delight and an homage to William Shakespeare's enduring literary legacy. As we admire this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection, it reminds us that love knows no boundaries - transcending time itself.
