If I could work my will, every idiot who goes about with Merry Christmas on his lips should be boiled with his own pudding and buried with a stake of holly through his heart!". The intensity of Scrooge's words is beautifully captured by Furniss' masterful strokes. As one delves into this enchanting artwork, it becomes evident that Furniss skillfully brings Dickens' characters to life. The intricate details showcase not only the illustrator's talent but also his deep understanding of the story's social context.
