Artists Description 

"This painting is inspired by Shakespeare’s dramatic tragedy ‘Macbeth’. This play tells the story of a man consumed by ambition, leading him to murder the King and take the throne for himself. I represented the guilt of Macbeth’s actions by painting the crown above his head with blood trickling down from it. This symbolises the fact that Macbeth’s kingship is tainted by his crimes, all of which stem from his hamartia. A hamartia is a fatal flaw leading to the downfall of a tragic hero- in Macbeth’s case, his hamartia is ambition."
