furniture, metalwork, and many tiles. For stained glass, Morris generally designed the backgrounds and Burne-Jones drew most of the figures, with Rossetti and Ford Madox Brown also contributing designs. Burne-Jones also collaborated with Morris on tapestries, designed many tiles, and drew for the books produced by the Kelmscott Press, founded by Morris in 1891.

Polonius who is the father of Laetres and Ophelia is also a councilor to King Claudius. Polonius is the first to be killed and dies unexpectedly while listening to Hamlet and Queen Gertrude from behind a tapestry.
