EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite illustrations created by William Mulready for Oliver Goldsmith's novel, "The Vicar of Wakefield". Dating back to the 19th century, this artwork captures the essence of a tale that has captivated readers for generations. The novel itself was penned by Irish writer Oliver Goldsmith between 1761 and 1762, eventually being published in 1766. Its popularity soared during Victorian times, making it one of the most widely read novels of the 18th century. In this particular image, we are transported into an outdoor scene where both male and female characters are depicted. The artist skillfully portrays their emotions and struggles through his intricate brushstrokes. One can sense hunger and poverty resonating from these individuals who find solace in their faith amidst challenging circumstances. This monochrome illustration not only serves as a visual representation of a literary masterpiece but also offers us a glimpse into British society during the early decades of the 20th century. It is part of a collection featured in "British Book Illustration - Yesterday and Today" edited by Geoffrey Holme. As we admire this black-and-white portrait, we are reminded of how art transcends time and brings stories to life while simultaneously preserving historical moments for future generations to appreciate.
