Fantastic piece, looks to be the same quality as Dulac!

It's a charming painting from one of the weirder of Shakespeare's plays (this one probably involved a co-writer of much lesser talents). The picture shows the casket of Thaisa, the wife of Pericles who is believed to have died at sea during childbirth, after it has washed ashore near the house of Lord Cerimon, who, as the coincidences of this play go, just happens to be a physician who is then able to revive her. Rest assured, many coincidences later, we get a happy ending.
