Description: Hamlet in doublet, trunk hose stands with parted legs and drawn sword facing to the left where presumably he has just seen the Ghost. The setting is not really defined as clouds seem to be swirling behind him. His hair streams back from his head and his eyes are staring. He wears doublet and trunk hose and a short cape.
