EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming and whimsical color lithograph, we are transported back in time to witness a delightful encounter between two iconic figures from history. The print captures the moment when William Shakespeare pays a visit to a grocer's shop in Bucklersbury, London, where he engages in an animated conversation with John Sadler, an apprentice hailing from his hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon. The scene is filled with intrigue as these two individuals from different walks of life engage in lively banter amidst shelves stocked with various goods. It is evident that Shakespeare's presence has captivated both Sadler and the bustling atmosphere of the shop. As they exchange words, one can only imagine what pearls of wisdom or witty remarks may have been shared between them. This image not only offers us a glimpse into the daily life and retail practices of 16th-century London but also provides insight into Shakespeare's own biography. We see him stepping out of his literary realm and engaging with ordinary people like Sadler, reminding us that even great artists find inspiration in everyday encounters. Through this evocative print by artist William Hatherell, we are reminded that greatness can be found anywhere – even within the walls of a humble grocer's shop. It serves as a testament to the enduring influence and universal appeal of Shakespeare's works while highlighting the importance of human connection and conversation across all walks of life.
