The article refers to a "reverse piéta", which is difficult to fully understand unless it can be seen - this is an image of that reverse piéta. It was the final image of the historical tetralogy and was an extremely controversial one. However, for director Jane Howell, this one image summed up everything the four plays were about; the image is a vital part of the thematic structure of the four adaptations. |
