EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph, titled "Becky moves up in society and comes into a family of very genteel connections" transports us to the world of English literature. Created by Charles Crombie around 1910, this print captures a pivotal moment in Vanity Fair, written by William Makepeace Thackeray. The image depicts Becky, the ambitious protagonist, as she ascends the social ladder and enters a family with refined connections. The artist skillfully portrays her transformation from an outsider to someone embraced by high society. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring this scene to life, allowing us to immerse ourselves in Becky's journey. Thackeray's Vanity Fair is renowned for its satirical commentary on societal norms and human nature. Through his characters' experiences, he explores themes of ambition, class struggle, and the pursuit of wealth. This illustration beautifully encapsulates one such theme – the desire for upward mobility. As we gaze upon this artwork from our private collection, we are reminded of Thackeray's timeless storytelling prowess. It serves as a visual reminder that success often comes at a price; however, it also highlights the allure and fascination surrounding those who navigate their way through genteel circles. This print not only celebrates an iconic literary work but also showcases Crombie's talent as an artist. Its presence within our collection allows us to appreciate both historical significance and artistic excellence simultaneously.
