Dickens and Little Nell, 1893
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photogravure that captures the essence of 19th-century literature and art. The image showcases renowned author Charles Dickens alongside one of his most beloved characters, Little Nell, from his novel "The Old Curiosity Shop". In this beautifully composed photograph, taken by Francis Edwin Elwell, we see Dickens seated on a chair with an air of wisdom and creativity surrounding him. Little Nell stands beside him, her innocent expression reflecting the purity and vulnerability portrayed in the novel. The setting transports us to the Columbian Exposition at Chicago in 1893, where this print was featured as part of Hubert Howe Bancroft's book "The Book of the Fair". It serves as a historical testament to both literature and industry during that time period. The inclusion of horses in the background adds a touch of rural charm to the scene, symbolizing agriculture and farming prevalent during that era. The furniture showcased further enhances our understanding of late nineteenth-century furnishings. This photogravure not only pays homage to two iconic figures but also encapsulates an entire epoch in American history. It reminds us of Dickens' profound impact on literature while offering glimpses into life during that transformative period. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection, let it serve as a reminder that art has the power to transport us through time and connect us with stories long gone but never forgotten.
