Act III Scene 1

Henry Justice Ford is another favorite of many people, and is most oft associated with Andrew Lang's fairy tale books. So it's fun to find a fanciful example of his work away from that well-known body of work, such as this frontis piece to a 1901 edition of The Tempest—the only illustration in this edition.

I like your post title; and the illustration, especially the floating figure.
