"Othello, Act II, Scene I, engraved by Thomas Ryder (1746-1810) 1803" is an engraving by British artist Thomas Ryder, based on a design by the painter Thomas Stothard. This work is a visual representation of a scene from William Shakespeare's tragic play "Othello." The scene depicted is from the second act, first scene of the play, which is set in Cyprus and marks the arrival of Othello, the Moorish general of the Venetian army, after a tempest at sea. The engraving is part of a series that illustrates moments from Shakespeare's plays, a common practice among artists of the 18th and early 19th centuries who sought to bring the dramatic literature to life through visual arts.

Thomas Ryder was an accomplished engraver of his time, known for his fine line and stipple work, which allowed for detailed and delicate representations of his subjects. His engravings often graced the pages of books and were collected by those who appreciated the intersection of literature and visual art. Thomas Stothard, the designer of the original image, was a prolific illustrator whose works included illustrations for literary classics, thus contributing significantly to the visual culture of the period.

The engraving "Othello, Act II, Scene I" is a testament to the collaborative nature of printmaking in the 18th and 19th centuries, where artists like Stothard would create the designs and engravers like Ryder would translate them into prints. This particular piece captures the tension and anticipation of Othello's arrival and the unfolding drama that is central to the play's plot. The work is an example of how visual art can enhance and complement the understanding of literary texts, providing a window into the historical context of Shakespeare's work and its interpretation during the Georgian era.
