"The Tempest" by William Shakespeare / Arthur Rackham (ill.)

William Heinemann, London - 1926, first UK edition - 186p, 25cmx20cm - 20 colored plates by Arthur Rackham - condition: very good copy, clean internally, all plates present, in rare slipcase. 

The Tempest is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in 1610–1611, and thought by many critics to be the last play that Shakespeare wrote alone. It is set on a remote island, where the sorcerer Prospero, rightful Duke of Milan, plots to restore his daughter Miranda to her rightful place using illusion and skillful manipulation. He conjures up a storm, the eponymous tempest, to cause his usurping brother Antonio and the complicit King Alonso of Naples to believe they are shipwrecked and marooned on the island. There, his machinations bring about the revelation of Antonio's lowly nature, the redemption of the King, and the marriage of Miranda to Alonso's son, Ferdinand.

One of Arthur Rackham's rarer first edition books, especially in this condition and slipcase.
