Two Gentlemen of Verona (Shakespeare, Act V, Scene IV) 1823

"Two Gentlemen of Verona (Shakespeare, Act V, Scene IV)" is a 1823 print by William Henry Watt depicting a scene from Shakespeare's play. The print shows a dramatic moment where a woman kneels in the center, surrounded by three men in a forest. The scene is likely from Act V, Scene IV, where the characters are attempting to resolve a love triangle. The artwork is a fine example of the Romantic era's fascination with Shakespeare's work and uses a dark and moody palette to capture the emotional intensity of the scene. The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds this piece in its collection.
