EDITORS COMMENTS
Moll Flanders: A Portrait of the Infamous Heroine, as Depicted in Daniel Defoe's Novel (1722) This evocative portrait captures the enigmatic and captivating figure of Moll Flanders, the protagonist of Daniel Defoe's groundbreaking novel, published in 1722. Moll Flanders is a novel of manners and adventure, following the life of its eponymous heroine as she navigates the complexities of 17th-century English society. Born into poverty and raised in Newgate Prison, Moll Flanders' life is marked by a series of trials and tribulations, including prostitution, bigamy, and theft. Yet, despite her checkered past, she remains a sympathetic and resilient character, whose resourcefulness and determination enable her to rise above her circumstances. This portrait offers a glimpse into the intriguing personality of Moll Flanders, with her piercing gaze and enigmatic smile. The artist skillfully captures the tension between her vulnerability and her strength, her innocence and her experience, and her vulnerability and her cunning. Daniel Defoe's novel was a sensation when it was first published, and it remains a classic of English literature. Moll Flanders is considered one of the first novels in the English language to explore the inner thoughts and motivations of its characters, and it continues to captivate readers with its vivid portrayal of life in 17th-century England. This portrait serves as a visual complement to Defoe's masterpiece, inviting us to delve deeper into the complex and intriguing world of Moll Flanders, and to ponder the enduring appeal of this unforgettable heroine.
