A lovely scene from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Oberon and Titania are the King and Queen of the Fairies.

The synopsis (here on Wikipedia) is the perfect inspiration for painters and movie makers alike. It has love, tragedy, pagan nastiness, comedy and some indecent sexual undertones.

Highly recommended.
