LAZARUS Store Display Painting “King Lear”

Originally crafted for display at the Lazarus Department Store in downtown Columbus, Ohio, this large original painting depicts a scene from William Shakespeare’s play, King Lear. Standing at an impressive 83” high, the central figure of King Lear gazes out and matches the audience in a stoic interpretation of this well known tragedy. This painting was passed from former employees of the Lazarus Store and exhibits luscious graphic tones. Now housed in a looming black frame, this original painting on canvas is unsigned by the unknown artist.

This painting is amongst hundreds of pieces of art that are available at our location in Grandview! Come in today and see the full collection.
