A pastel drawing by Edwin Austin Abbey depicting Queen Gertrude from Shakespeare's 'Hamlet'. The artwork captures the queen's contemplative mood with soft colours and delicate lines.
Edwin Austin Abbey (1852-1911) was an American artist known for his illustrations and paintings, particularly those depicting scenes from Shakespeare and other literary works. Abbey spent much of his career in England and was elected to the Royal Academy in 1902. His style blends academic realism with a flair for dramatic composition and historical detail. He often worked in pastel, watercolour, and oil. 'La reine dans Hamlet' depicts Queen Gertrude from Shakespeare's play 'Hamlet'. The queen is seated on a throne, wearing a crown and draped in white fabric. Her expression is contemplative, perhaps reflecting the inner turmoil of her character. The colour palette is restrained, with muted tones of white, gold, and green dominating the composition. The background is dark, with a red curtain adding a touch of drama. The pastel medium lends a soft, almost ethereal quality to the image, enhancing the sense of melancholy and introspection.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
