Exhibition: Boydell's Vision - The Shakespeare Gallery in the 18th Century.

Mon, 07 Mar 2016 13:49:45 GMT

Dr Rosie Dias has worked with staff at Compton Verney to create an exhibition displaying the history of the Shakespeare Gallery which opened in 1789 on Pall Mall. Using Shakespeare as a vehicle for the development of a national form of history painting, the print publisher John Boydell commissioned prominent painters, sculptors and printmakers of the day, including George Romney, Henry Fuseli and James Northcote, to produce works depicting scenes from all of Shakespeare's plays. The exhibition includes examples of this work, as well as a digital reconstruction of The Shakespeare Gallery as it looked in 1796.
