"Hamlet" is a series of five black and white illustrations by British artist John Austen (1886-1948), depicting characters from Shakespeare's famous play. The style of the illustrations is reminiscent of Art Nouveau with its flowing lines, emphasis on decorative elements, and bold silhouettes. Each illustration is framed with a thick black border and is printed on a light cream paper background. The illustrations are likely to have been created for a book or magazine, and they showcase Austen's skill in capturing the essence of the characters through his stylized line work.
