This print shows Ophelia at the moment she drowns in *Hamlet*. It’s a single scene turned into art by J. Mortimer in 1775. The artist used Romanticism to turn a sad stage moment into a print you can hold. It was published on the exact date of 20 May 1775. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this print in person.
