EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Angelo suffered far more that night than the prisoner he had so unjustly condemned" we are transported to a moment of intense emotion and turmoil. The image, taken from Tales from Shakespeare pub. by Ward Lock & Co Ltd in the 1930-40s, showcases the talent of A. Jackson, a renowned 19th-century artist. Set against a backdrop reminiscent of an Elizabethan theater, we witness a scene filled with drama and tragedy. The costumes worn by the actors add authenticity to the portrayal of characters from one of William Shakespeare's most compelling plays, Measure for Measure. The central figure is Angelo, whose face bears an expression burdened with guilt and regret. It is evident that he has inflicted immense suffering upon himself due to his unjust condemnation of a prisoner. Through subtle details captured in this color lithograph, we can sense Angelo's internal struggle as he grapples with his own conscience. This image serves as a powerful reminder of Shakespeare's ability to explore complex human emotions within his works. It encapsulates both comedy and tragedy simultaneously – showcasing how even in moments intended for laughter or entertainment, there exists profound depth and introspection. As viewers engage with this evocative artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, they are invited to reflect on themes such as justice, morality, and redemption that resonate throughout Shakespeare's timeless oeuvre
