EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage colour engraving captures a poignant scene from Charles Dickens' renowned work, "A Walk in a Workhouse" offering us a glimpse into the harsh realities of life in a London workhouse during the mid-19th century. The print showcases an intimate moment within the confines of one room, where several elderly women huddle together around a hearth. Their weathered faces and stooped postures evoke both vulnerability and resilience. The artist's attention to detail transports us back in time, as we witness these women engrossed in their own world of conversation and companionship. Like ancient witches gathered around their cauldron, they chatter and nod with familiarity, perhaps finding solace amidst their shared struggles. This image not only reflects European culture from that era but also pays homage to retro styling techniques prevalent during that period. The use of vibrant colours adds depth to the engraving while preserving its historical authenticity. "Duncan1890" skillfully brings this literary masterpiece to life through his artistic interpretation. Through this print, viewers are invited to reflect on the social injustices faced by marginalized communities throughout history while appreciating the enduring power of literature as it sheds light on forgotten narratives.
