EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Miggs, c. 1920s" a stunning pen and ink with watercolor on paper artwork by Joseph Clayton Clarke (Kyd). The piece measures 28.5x22.5 cm and is housed in the Free Library of Philadelphia's Rare Book Department. The illustration originates from "Eighteen Original Character Illustrations to Barnaby Rudge" a novel written by Charles Dickens and first published in installments between 1840-41. This particular image features Miggs, a character from the book, portrayed in an apron and costume typical of the Georgian era. With her bonnet perched delicately atop her head, Miggs stands tall as a servant figure holding a book. Her profile is beautifully captured in full length, exuding both grace and strength. The artwork not only reflects the fashion trends of the 1920s but also pays homage to literature's enduring impact on visual arts. Through this enchanting illustration, we are transported back to an era where maids like Miggs played significant roles within novels. As we admire this exquisite piece, it serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time, allowing us to appreciate both literary masterpieces and their artistic interpretations throughout different centuries.
