EUGENE DELACROIX. Hamlet and His Mother

EUGENE DELACROIX. Hamlet and His Mother. Artist: Eugène Delacroix (French, Charenton-Saint-Maurice 1798-1863 Paris). Dimensions: 10 3/4 x 7 1/8 in. (27.3 x 18.1 cm). Date: 1849.
This painting depicts the moment in Shakespeare's epic tragedy <i>Hamlet</i> in which the protagonist, who has been speaking privately with his mother, Queen Gertrude of Denmark, notices a figure behind the curtains of her closet. Immediately afterward, Hamlet will impale the hidden Polonius with his sword, and utter the memorable phrase "How now! A rat? Dead for a ducat, dead!" The composition is identical to a black and white lithograph Delacroix made for a portfolio devoted to the play, which was first published in 1843.
