Key Features of the Shakespeare Frieze
- Location: The carved wooden frieze is situated in the upper gallery and Great Hall beneath the building's glowing stained-glass ceiling cupola. [1, 2]
- The Artwork: It features an intricate oak-carved relief depicting dozens of characters and figures from William Shakespeare's plays, alongside other literary and historical figures admired by Astor. [1, 2, 3]
- Designers: The decorative and sculptural elements of the interior were masterminded by craftsman and sculptor Nathaniel Hitch and his studio. [1]
The staircase hall is overlooked by a gallery that features statues made by Nicholls, having American literary associations, and a frieze in relief which features 82 characters from Shakespeare’s Othello, Henry VIII,[2][22] Antony and Cleopatra and Macbeth. Around this gallery are ten pillars of solid ebony. The statues are positioned on six of the carved oak panels which surmount these pillars. The ceiling of the staircase Hall and Gallery is in stained glass, coved and panelled.[6]

I made this post in the Klimt group explaining the full splendour of the Stoclet Frieze in Brussels.
Stoclet Frieze at the Stoclet Palace in Brussels
I made a comment somewhere and then I posted this picture, and then I thought I cannot explain it otherwise to all the members of the group.

This is how the Stoclet Frieze really looks like in the Stoclet Palace. The murals are integrated in the dining room. The Stoclet Palace is a masterwork of Vienna Secession, build by Joseph Hoffman. That we still have it as it was at the time, is thanks to Adolphe Stoclet and his heirs. Brussels doesn't allow tall buildings to be build near to it. Regretfully it is not open to the public...

Not your usual Klimt - "The Beethoven Frieze" (The Hostile Powers, detail), 1901.
by Gustav Klimt
This part of a frieze shows a dynamic battle between the Greeks and the Amazons, a mythical tribe of fierce female warriors. It was made around 350 BC for the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Once painted with vivid colours, the complete frieze around the building was 140 metres long!

At 31 yards long, this limestone slab was inscribed with millennia-old Luwian, an ancient language spoken by people in modern-day Turkey.
