EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Coriolanus, 1890" transports us to the tragic world of William Shakespeare's play. Created by John Gilbert in the late 19th century, this artwork captures a pivotal moment between Volumina and her son Coriolanus. In this scene, Volumina is seen kneeling before her son, desperately pleading with him not to seek vengeance on Rome after his banishment. The emotional intensity is palpable as she begs for mercy and reconciliation. The artist skillfully portrays their relationship through subtle details - the anguish etched on Volumina's face and the conflicted expression on Coriolanus' countenance. The illustration showcases Gilbert's mastery in capturing human emotions within a classical setting. The Roman soldiers surrounding them serve as a poignant backdrop, emphasizing the weightiness of Coriolanus' decision and highlighting his military background. Symbolic elements such as eagles and fasces further enhance the classical atmosphere. Originally published in London in 1890 as part of "The Illustrated Library Shakespeare" this lithograph has stood the test of time. It remains an enduring testament to both Shakespeare's timeless tragedy and Gilbert's artistic talent. Now preserved in a private collection, this print invites viewers to delve into one of Shakespeare's lesser-known plays while marveling at Gilbert's ability to bring these characters to life through artistry that transcends centuries.
