WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE ARRESTED FOR DEER STEALING Art by J. Schrader 1894 Print
This is a Wood Engraving / illustration / print that has been taken from a book dated 1894 and is ready for framing. Measures approximately 11 1/2 x 9 inches.
There is an old legend that Shakespeare left Stratford because he was running from the law, having poached some deer from Sir William Lucy. However, the fact is that this legend appeared long after Shakespeare's death, and Sir William had no deer for Shakespeare to poach. The lack of any record of proceedings against him (after all, his wife, children, parents and some of his siblings were still in Stratford) also puts the lie to this old tale.
