Arthur Rackhams A Midsummer Nights Dream, is one of his finest, and most sought after works of illustration. Originally published in 1908, his Shakespearean fairies are some of his bestknown work, with his gnarled trees and droves of fairies, representing the visual reality of the Dream for thousands of readers... here, he excelled especially in landscape, and in reconciling dream and reality, giving himself to the luxury of rich detail with a rare generosity. A Midsummer Nights Dream is a comedy play one of Shakespeares lighter works, believed to have been written between 1590 and 1597. Both in text, and on stage, it is one of Shakespeares most popular narratives, and remains widely performed across the world. Arthur Rackham (18671939), was one of the most celebrated painters of the British Golden Age of Illustration (which encompassed the years from 1850 until the start of the First World War), Rackhams artistry is quite simply, unparalleled. Throughout his career, he developed a unique style, combining haunting humour with dreamlike romance. Presented alongside the text, his illustrations further refine this classic work.
