EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic character of Mr Pickwick, brought to life from Charles Dickens' beloved novel "The Pickwick Papers". Created in 1912, this illustration was originally used as an advertisement for the book sold by the esteemed Nelson Library. Mr Pickwick, portrayed here with utmost charm and authenticity, epitomizes the essence of a true Dickensian gentleman. His attire reflects the fashion of 19th century Britain, complete with a distinguished waistcoat and meticulously tailored clothing. Seated on an elegant chair amidst tasteful Victorian furniture, he exudes an air of wisdom and authority. With spectacles perched upon his nose, Mr Pickwick holds a book in his hand - perhaps one that contains his own literary masterpiece. As both author and protagonist, he stands proudly as a symbol of Dickens' genius storytelling and profound influence on English literature. This remarkable portrait captures not only the essence of Mr Pickwick but also provides us with a glimpse into the world created by Charles Dickens. It transports us back to 19th century England where vivid characters like Mr Pickwick roamed its streets and captured readers' hearts. As we admire this exquisite print from The Bookman magazine's February issue in 1912, we are reminded once again of Charles Dickens' enduring legacy as one of Britain's greatest writers.
