EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "I Stood Like One Thunderstruck" takes us back to the year 1896, when Walter Paget's remarkable illustration from Daniel Defoe's timeless novel, Robinson Crusoe, was first published by Cassell and Company. The image beautifully captures a pivotal moment in the story, where the protagonist finds himself in utter disbelief and awe. Paget's skillful depiction transports us into Crusoe's world as we witness his astonishment firsthand. The intricate details of the illustration bring every element to life - from Crusoe's wide-eyed expression to the surrounding landscape that seems frozen in time. It is as if we too are standing beside him on that deserted island, sharing his overwhelming sense of wonderment. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth and intensity to this powerful scene. As viewers, we can almost feel the weight of Crusoe's emotions through Paget's masterful use of shading and line work. This evocative composition truly showcases why Paget was renowned for his ability to breathe life into literary works through visual art. Ken Welsh has expertly captured this iconic piece with great attention to detail, preserving its historical significance for generations to come. Whether you are an ardent fan of Robinson Crusoe or simply appreciate exceptional artwork, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and transport you back in time.
