EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage engraving from Forster's Life of Charles Dickens, we are transported back to the 19th century and introduced to a peculiar character. The print showcases an old man with no neckcloth, embodying his principles by refusing to conform to societal norms. His mouth is wide open, as if attempting to catch the freshness of the morning air. However, what truly captures our attention is the intriguing anecdote associated with this image. It tells us that this eccentric gentleman once ran over a milk-child rather than stopping in his tracks! This unexpected twist adds depth and complexity to his character, leaving us pondering about his motivations and values. The retro styling of this artwork further enhances its charm and nostalgic appeal. The intricate details meticulously captured by Fred Barnard transport us into a world where eyesight and physical impairments were common challenges faced by individuals like the milk maid depicted here. Duncan1890's masterful reproduction brings forth not only an artistic masterpiece but also invites contemplation on themes such as individuality, social expectations, and moral dilemmas. This print serves as a visual reminder of how literature can transcend time and continue sparking curiosity even centuries later.
