Answer :

Portia's father set up a way of choosing a suitor for her beloved daughter.

According to him, any suitor willing to woo Portia shall choose one among three caskets, which were of gold, silver and lead. (in which, one had Portia's picture).

Also, the three conditions put in front of a suitor were:

  • He shall not tell anybody the casket he chose.
  • he shall not woo any other women for marriage throughout his life.
  • he shall leave the place as soon as he chooses the wrong casket.
