"Hamlet and Gertrude with the Ghost, Act III Scene 4 from 'Hamlet'" is an oil painting by George Clint, an English portrait painter and engraver. Created in the 19th century, this work of art captures a pivotal moment from William Shakespeare's tragedy "Hamlet," specifically from Act III, Scene 4, known as the "closet scene." In this scene, Hamlet confronts his mother, Queen Gertrude, in her private chambers, during which the ghost of his father, the former King, appears to remind Hamlet of his duty to avenge his murder.

George Clint (1770–1854) was known for his theatrical paintings, and this work is a prime example of his ability to convey the dramatic intensity of a scene. The painting illustrates the emotional tension between the characters, with Hamlet depicted in a state of agitated persuasion, Gertrude in a mix of fear and confusion, and the ghost, visible only to Hamlet, adding a supernatural element to the encounter.

The artwork is significant for its representation of 19th-century interpretations of Shakespearean drama and the Romantic period's fascination with emotion, the supernatural, and the inner turmoil of characters. Clint's painting not only serves as a visual retelling of a classic literary moment but also reflects the era's theatrical tastes and the broader cultural engagement with Shakespeare's works.

As a visual interpretation of one of the most intense scenes in "Hamlet," George Clint's painting remains an important piece for both art and literary scholars, offering insight into the historical context of Shakespearean performance and interpretation. It is a valuable artifact for understanding the intersection of visual art and literature during the 19th century.
