Written between 1590 - 1597, the play is still performed all around the world and imagined in different visual representations. The Arabesque was inspired by this literary work of art in the production of our own Midsummer Night's Dream Collection pieces. Check out other products from this collection in our shop.

“Lovers and madmen have such seething brains,
Such shaping fantasies, that apprehend
More than cool reason ever comprehends.
The lunatic, the lover and the poet
Are of imagination all compact:
One sees more devils than vast hell can hold,
That is, the madman: the lover, all as frantic,
Sees Helen's beauty in a brow of Egypt:
The poet's eye, in fine frenzy rolling,
Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven;
And as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.”

(Shakespeare - A Midsummer Night's Dream)

The plate has polyurethane surface to protect the artwork. It cannot be washed and is meant for decor purposes or for dry items only. It is 11.5 inches wide.
