EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph print captures the essence of Old Mr. Turveydrop, a character from Charles Dickens' renowned novel "Bleak House". Created in 1923 by Joseph Clayton Clarke, also known as Kyd, this artwork showcases the flamboyant and pompous nature of this fictional figure. Old Mr. Turveydrop is depicted as a portly man with a red face, exuding an air of self-importance and vanity. He prides himself on his imagined resemblance to the Prince Regent, later known as George IV. Living off his sons' hard work in running the Dancing and Deportment Academy, he epitomizes selfishness and hypocrisy. This vintage card was part of a series called Character Sketches from Charles Dickens produced by John Player & Sons as cigarette cards. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of this literary villain through its caricature-like portrayal. With intricate details and vivid colors, this print brings to life one of Dickens' most memorable characters. It serves as a reminder of Victorian-era literature's ability to create complex personalities that resonate even today. As we gaze upon Old Mr. Turveydrop's image, we are transported into the world of Bleak House—a world filled with bon viveurs and humbugs—where fiction intertwines with reality to expose societal flaws and human follies.
