The main character, consistently spelled "Schylock" in Méliès's materials, was inspired by Shylock from William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice.[2] Shakespeare-on-film scholar Judith Buchanan concludes that the film was "probably only mildly Shakespearean."[3]
The film was sold by Méliès's Star Film Company and is numbered 699–701 in its catalogues, where it was advertised as une mésaventure de Schylock ("a misadventure of Shylock").[2] It is currently presumed lost.[1]
