EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the title page of William Shakespeare's beloved comedy, Twelfth Night. Illustrated by Sir John Gilbert RA in the 19th century, this work of art brings to life one of Shakespeare's most enduring plays.
Twelfth Night (or What You Will) is a tale of mistaken identity, love triangles, and comedic misunderstandings. Set in Illyria, the play follows the story of Viola, who disguises herself as a man named Cesario after being shipwrecked. As Cesario, Viola becomes entangled in a web of romantic complications involving Duke Orsino and Countess Olivia.
William Shakespeare, known for his poetic language and timeless themes, crafted Twelfth Night with wit and charm that continue to captivate audiences centuries later. The intricate details on this title page highlight the talent of both Shakespeare as a playwright and Gilbert as an illustrator.
