Oliver

Chandler’s portrayal of Oliver, the eldest son of Sir Rowland de Boys, creates a sense of discomfort for the viewer. The ambiguity in Oliver's stance whether he is moving towards or away from the observer coupled with his sharp, aloof posture, captures the character's spitefulness and duality. The print is also purposefully darker than the others, communicating his sinister character. Oliver transforms from a villain who irrationally hates his brother Orlando, to a redeemed character capable of profound love for Celia (disguised as a shepherdess). This nuanced portrayal highlights Chandler's ability to depict the complexity of Shakespeare's characters.
