An original c.1898 watercolour painting, V. Downes, Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet Palm to Palm.

A vivid, intensely coloured evocation of Shakespeare.

Dating from around 1898, this painting forms part of a collection that we have for sale by V. Downes depicting Shakespearean subjects. The works demonstrate a Pre-Raphaelite sensibility, drawing on the emotional and moral complexity of Shakespeare and rendering the scenes with sumptuous detail and a jewel-like palette.
