Last night, while I was searching through images of Richard III, I came across these beautiful paintings of Shakespeare’s characters by John Link. Here are a few of my favorites:
Hamlet and Old Hamlet
Feste
Imogen
Malvolio
Ophelia
Sir Andrew Aguecheek
King Lear
Viola and Sebastian
And of course, Richard III
You can see all of the paintings here.
…Wow. Absolutely hauntingly beautiful.
