The title of the painting is accompanied by the following lines:
Ye jewels of our father, with washed eyes
Cordelia leaves you. I know what you are;
And, like a sister, am most loth to call
Your faults as they are named. Love well our father.
To your professed bosoms I commit him.
But yet, alas! stood I within his grace,
I would prefer him to a better place.
So farewell to you both.); Photo ePeter Nahum at The Leicester Galleries, London; American, out of copyright

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment from King Lear, Act I, Scene I - Cordelia's farewell. Created in 1898 by the talented artist Edwin Austin Abbey, this period reproduction beautifully depicts the emotional scene with remarkable detail. The image showcases a female figure kneeling on the ground, dressed in elegant gowns and robes of the 19th century. Standing beside her is a male figure holding a walking stick or cane. Their expressions convey deep sorrow and longing as they bid their farewells. The title of the painting is accompanied by lines from Shakespeare's play that emphasize Cordelia's love for her father and her reluctance to criticize her sisters' faults. The composition exudes an air of melancholy as Cordelia prepares to leave her family behind. Originally exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1898, this stunning artwork now resides in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This particular print was captured by ePeter Nahum at The Leicester Galleries in London. With its pre-Raphaelite influences and attention to detail, this image transports viewers back to a time when artistry flourished amidst powerful emotions.
