Macbeth og heksene 1908

"Macbeth og heksene" (Macbeth and the witches) is a 1908 etching by Danish artist Oluf Hartmann, a notable figure of the early 20th century. Depicting a scene from Shakespeare's Macbeth, the work showcases Hartmann's talent for capturing the drama and intensity of the play through a simple yet expressive style. The etching, currently housed at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, is a testament to the artist's unique artistic voice, evident in the detailed portrayal of the witches and the use of light and shadow to create a sense of atmosphere. It exemplifies the enduring influence of Shakespeare on artistic expression and the continued relevance of the Bard's work in the early 20th century.
