EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Katherine and Bianca" by Francis Phillip Stephanoff depicts a scene from William Shakespeare's renowned play, "The Taming of the Shrew". The print showcases the contrasting personalities of the two sisters, Katherine and Bianca. In this visually striking image, we witness the stark differences between these two characters. Katherine, known for her strong-willed nature and fiery temperament, stands tall with an air of defiance in her eyes. On the other hand, Bianca exudes innocence and vulnerability as she gazes into the distance. Stephanoff's masterful technique brings out every intricate detail in this engraving. From their elaborate costumes to their expressive facial features, each element contributes to capturing the essence of these complex characters. Originally created as an illustration for Charles Gibbon's compilation "The Casquet of Literature" this digitally cleaned image transports us back to 19th-century England when Shakespearean plays were at their peak popularity. "The Taming of the Shrew" remains one of Shakespeare's most controversial works due to its portrayal of gender dynamics and power struggles within relationships. This print serves as a visual reminder that even centuries later, Shakespeare's timeless themes continue to captivate audiences worldwide. With Bridgeman Images' permission through Fine Art Finder, we are fortunate enough to admire this exquisite piece that pays homage not only to English literature but also to Stephanoff's exceptional talent as an artist.
