 abstract={The purpose of this article is to emphasise the critical potential of poster art concerning William Shakespeare’s dramatic texts. The semiotic and intermedial study of The Tempest by Wojciech Siudmak reveals iconographic and literary comments on the Christian elements embedded in the image. The designer’s work is based on the traditional composition depicting an enthroned figure and this essay juxtaposes it with a range of artworks employing similar iconographical arrangements: Zeus at Olympia by Phidias, images of Maiestas Domini, Christ in Judgement, and the Deisis Group. Further associations include the portraits of Saint Jerome, images of a spiral galaxy or Saturn the planet. The exploration of these motifs allows to de- and reconstruct the detailed characteristic of Prospero, Shakespeare’s protagonist, highlighting his quasi-divine features, but also the nature of the island, as well as the structure of the play referring to the requirements of a good Confession.},
