Why these prints suit a Shakespeare enthusiast
Four centuries on, Shakespeare still gives readers everything from candlelit tragedy to giddy comedy, and that range is exactly what makes these posters such a fitting gift. Whether your reader adores the blood and ambition of the tragedies or the tangled disguises of the comedies, there is a play here that speaks to their particular taste in the Bard.
How to choose the right one
If they are drawn to darker drama, Hamlet or Macbeth make brooding, atmospheric choices for a study or reading nook. For the romantic at heart, Romeo and Juliet is the obvious pick, while A Midsummer Night's Dream suits anyone who loves the playful, dreamlike side of Shakespeare's comedies. Fans of wit and mistaken identity might prefer Much Ado About Nothing or Twelfth Night, and history buffs will appreciate Henry V. Not sure which play they love most? The Shakespeare Classics set brings three together, so you needn't choose just one.
Size, frame and style tips
Each design comes in six styles, from the bold Blurby treatment to the softer Watercolour, so you can match the print to their existing decor. Sizes run from A5 for a shelf or desk right up to A1 for a real statement piece, and every poster can be left unframed or finished in oak, black or white, ready to hang straight from the box. For a study or home library, a framed A2 or A3 tends to sit particularly well.
Making it a proper gift
Every order can include a free printed gift note, a nice touch if you are sending the poster straight to them rather than wrapping it yourself. Choose three prints, perhaps pairing a tragedy with a comedy and a history play, and the 20% discount is applied automatically at checkout, or pick a ready-made poster set for an easy three-play gift. Order before 1pm UK time on a weekday and it goes out for same-day dispatch, with free tracked delivery to the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and the EU.
