EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of longing and heartbreak in Eleanor Fortescue-Brickdale's oil on canvas masterpiece, "Farewell - one kiss, and I'll descend". The painting depicts a poignant scene from Shakespeare's timeless tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. Set against a medieval interior backdrop with a balcony overlooking the dawn-lit cityscape, two lovers bid each other farewell. Their faces are filled with both sorrow and passion as they share one last tender kiss before parting ways. A nurse stands nearby, her presence adding to the sense of impending tragedy. Fortescue-Brickdale's pre-Raphaelite style is evident in the meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors that bring this emotional moment to life. The artist skillfully portrays the intensity of their love amidst an atmosphere charged with melancholy. The composition beautifully captures the contrast between light and shadow, symbolizing hope fading into darkness. It serves as a reminder of Shakespeare's profound understanding of human emotions and his ability to convey them through words. This exquisite print allows viewers to appreciate every brushstroke while immersing themselves in this tragic tale. It is truly a testament to Fortescue-Brickdale's artistic talent and William Shakespeare's enduring legacy.
