1. Title: "Charles Dickens' Former Residence at 48 Doughty Street, Holborn, London: A Glimpse into the 19th Century 2. In this evocative 19th-century photograph, we are transported back in time to No. 48 Doughty Street in Holborn, London, the former residence of the literary giant, Charles Dickens. Dickens lived here with his family from 1837 until 1839, during a pivotal period in his career. 3. The image reveals the exterior of the terraced house, adorned with iron railings and a distinctive knocker on the front door. The sash windows, with their shutters closed, offer a glimpse into the privacy of the past. The windows, framed by white sills and brickwork, are a testament to the architectural charm of the Georgian era. 4. The house, now a museum dedicated to Dickens, stands as a reminder of the writer's connection to this historic street. Dickens penned several works during his time at Doughty Street, including "Oliver Twist" and "The Pickwick Papers." The house is a must-visit for Dickens fans and history enthusiasts alike, offering a unique insight into the life of one of England's most celebrated authors. 5. The photograph, with its intricate details and timeless appeal, invites us to imagine the daily life of the Dickens family as they went about their business in this charming 19th-century residence. The iron railings, shuttered windows, and sash windows all contribute to the sense of history and nostalgia that surrounds this iconic London address. 6.
