EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Uriah Heap, a fictional character from Charles Dickens' renowned novel, David Copperfield. Produced in 1939 as part of the Dickens Character Series by Copes Cigarettes, this image captures the essence of Heap's personality and role within the story. Seated at a desk, Uriah Heap is depicted as a man consumed by greed and ambition. His hands are clasped tightly together, symbolizing his insatiable desire for wealth and power. The furniture surrounding him reflects the era of the nineteenth century, transporting viewers back to an age where such characters thrived. The photographer skillfully uses light and shadow to emphasize Heap's cunning nature. The monochromatic color scheme adds depth to his character while highlighting his manipulative tendencies. This visual representation perfectly complements Dickens' vivid descriptions of Uriah Heap's appearance and behavior throughout the novel. As one person among many memorable characters created by Charles Dickens, Uriah Heap stands out due to his unscrupulous actions and relentless pursuit of personal gain. This cigarette card print serves as a timeless reminder of both literary excellence and societal flaws prevalent during the early twentieth century. Preserved by The Print Collector29 collection, this photograph allows us to delve into Dickens' world once more – reminding us that even though fiction can be fantastical, it often mirrors reality with striking accuracy.
