Description: 
In background, the departing figures of Horatio, Marcellus and Bernardo. In left 
foreground stands Hamlet, facing right. His right hand is slightly raised in front 
of him, his left hand held across his waist towards his right hip. He has pale, 
beardless face and shoulder-length hair. The artist seems to be depicting the 
lines that close the scene, a possible 'aside': 'O cursed spite,' etc.
