EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the talented Miss O Neill as Juliet, immortalizing her performance on May 29,1815. Created by James Godby in the 19th century, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of Elizabeth O'Neill's portrayal of Shakespeare's iconic character. Dressed in a stunning period costume that reflects the fashion of early 19th-century Britain, Miss O Neill radiates grace and elegance. Her delicate dress is meticulously detailed, highlighting both her beauty and the attention to detail paid to theatrical apparel during this era. As an Irish actress who made a name for herself on both sides of the Atlantic, Elizabeth O'Neill brings depth and emotion to her role as Juliet. The intensity in her eyes suggests a profound understanding of Shakespearean tragedy, while also capturing the youthful innocence required for such a complex character. James Godby's stipple engraving technique adds texture and dimension to this portrait, further enhancing its artistic value. This exquisite piece now resides within the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art collection. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness one of theater history's most celebrated performances. It serves as a testament not only to Miss O Neill's talent but also to William Shakespeare's enduring legacy.
