Taming of the Shrew 12 x 18 Poster

12inch x 18inch Poster In the English countryside, a poor tinker named Christopher Sly becomes the target of a prank by a local lord. Finding Sly drunk out of his wits in front of an alehouse, the lord has his men take Sly to his manor, dress him in his finery, and treat him as a lord. When Sly recovers, the men tell him that he is a lord and that he only believes himself to be a tinker because he has been insane for the past several years. Waking in the lord??s bed, Sly at first refuses to accept the men??s story, but when he hears of his ??wife,?÷ a pageboy dressed in women??s clothing, he readily agrees that he is the lord they purport him to be. Sly wants to be left alone with his wife, but the servants tell him that a troupe of actors has arrived to present a play for him. The play that Sly watches makes up the main story of The Taming of the Shrew. Comedy by William Shakespeare illustrated by palate from Clans of Scotland - There is a border around the image.
