Romeo and Juliet Paintings and quotations

Thomas Francis Dicksee, 1877 J. W. Waterhouse, 1898 Yulia Bekkhova: Juliet

Hugues Merle, 1879 Yulia Bekkhova Toshiaki Kato

O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name; ‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy: Thou art thyself, though not a Montague. What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot, Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part Belonging to a man. O, be some other name. What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet; Jennie Harbour (born 1893) John H. F. Bacon (1858 -1924)

Amen, amen! But come what sorrow can It cannot countervail the exchange of joy That one short minute gives me in her sight: Do thou but close our hands with holy words, Then love-devouring death do what he dare; It is enough I may but call her mine. Francesco Hayez , 1830

William James Grant (1829 -1866) Tomorrow night look that thou lie alone. Take thou this vial, being then in bed, And this distilled liquor drink thou off, When presently through all thy veins shall run A cold and drowsy humor, No warmth, no breath shall testify thou livest. The roses in thy lips and cheeks shall fade To paly ashes, thy eyes' windows fall Like death when he shuts up the day of life. And in this borrowed likeness of shrunk death Thou shalt continue two and forty hours, And then awake as from a pleasant sleep. Domenico Scattola (1814 -1876)

Joseph Wright of Derby, 1790 James Northcote (1746 -1831) Gustav Klimt (1862 -1918) Toshiaki Kato

CAPULET O brother Montague, give me thy hand. This is my daughter’s jointure, for no more Can I demand. MONTAGUE But I can give thee more, For I will raise her statue in pure gold, That whiles Verona by that name is known, There shall no figure at such rate be set As that of true and faithful Juliet. CAPULET As rich shall Romeo’s by his lady’s lie, Poor sacrifices of our enmity. Frederic Lord Leighton (1855) PRINCE A glooming peace this morning with it brings. The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head. Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things. Some shall be pardoned, and some punished. For never was a story of more woe Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
