Romeo and Juliet Miniatures

Description

Here comes a pair from another one of Shakespeare's tragedies...Romeo and Juliet. The plot basically revolves around the fact that two feuding families can't stand each other, but Romeo and Juliet fall in love, despite the fact they are on opposing sides. Fate has a cruel twist when Romeo finds Juliet in a drug induced snooze and thinks she is dead. He kills himself, then she wakes up and sees he is dead, and then kills herself also.
The well writtien tragedy is most likely one of Shakespeare's most well known.

I created Juliet with royal blue velvet dressing gown edged in white and silver trim. Her red hair is braided to one side, and she wears a while hair veil topped with silver. Her expression is all hand painted. Romeo is wearing olive green velvet shirt over black velvet breeches. He has ivory and gold accents along with shoulder length blonde "hair".
The pair look relieved that they no longer have to go to family reunions! Romeo stands about 4 and 3/4 inches tall, Juliet is a petite 4 an 1/2 inches tall. Perfect for any Shakespeare fan!
