EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ophelia, fennel, columbines, Shakespeare, Hamlet" transports us to the dramatic world of William Shakespeare's play. The image beautifully captures a moment from Act 4, Scene 5 of Hamlet, where Ophelia presents fennel and columbines to her brother Laertes. The print is a reproduction by William Wynne Ryland after Giovanni Battista Cipriani's original artwork. It showcases Ryland's exceptional talent in capturing the essence of Cipriani's work and bringing it to life through his own interpretation. The composition is filled with symbolism that adds depth to the scene. Fennel represents flattery and deceit while columbines symbolize ingratitude and faithlessness. These elements foreshadow the tragic events that unfold in the play. Through this image, we are reminded of Shakespeare's genius in crafting complex characters like Ophelia who embody both beauty and tragedy. The delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors used by Ryland evoke a sense of melancholy as we witness Ophelia's descent into madness. Artokoloro has done an exceptional job preserving this historical piece of art for us to appreciate today. This print allows us to bring a touch of classical literature into our homes or offices while honoring the timeless works of Shakespeare and his talented contemporaries.
