EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Solomon Gills, or Uncle Sol" in the 1920s. Created by Joseph Clayton Clarke (Kyd), this pen and ink with watercolor on paper artwork measures 28.5x22.5 cm and is housed at the Free Library of Philadelphia's Rare Book Department. The image captures a distinguished figure, known as Uncle Sol, who emanates warmth and charm through his gentle smile. Standing tall in full length, he exudes a sense of character that resonates with viewers. This illustration originates from Charles Dickens' renowned novel "Dombey & Son" which was first published in installments between 1846 and 1848. The Thirty Original Character Illustrations to Dombey & Son series brings these literary characters to life visually. Uncle Sol represents an important persona within the narrative, embodying both wisdom and compassion. Through this painting, Kyd beautifully captures the essence of Solomon Gills - a beloved character whose presence adds depth to Dickens' masterpiece. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are transported back in time to experience the world created by Charles Dickens once again. This print serves as a testament to the enduring power of literature and its ability to inspire visual interpretations that resonate across generations.
