Notes:

Play: Romeo and Juliet; Notes about Charles Baude: Engraver of paintings; illustrator for Harper's Magazine.; Albert Maignan 1886; [Ch.] Baude.; Content on verso indicates a magazine with New York affiliations. It is noteworthy that the two lovers are depicted in this image as both alive, sentient, and embracing one another whereas the last scene of "Romeo and Juliet" concludes without affording the lovers this opportunity. Albert Maignan's rendering of the play's conclusion goes beyond textual boundaries.
