EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in the life of Oliver Twist as he learns the art of pickpocketing from the notorious criminal duo, the Artful Dodger and his accomplice, in Charles Dickens' classic novel, published in 1836. The scene is set in the grimy, shadowy streets of 19th century London, a world far removed from the sterile confines of an orphanage or a workhouse. Oliver, a young orphan boy with a hollowed-out expression and a threadbare jacket, looks intently at the experienced hands of the Artful Dodger and his accomplice as they demonstrate the intricacies of the pickpocket's craft. The Dodger, a sly and cunning character, smirks as he guides Oliver's hand, while his accomplice, a burly and menacing figure, keeps watch. The historical context of this image is significant, as Dickens' novel was a scathing critique of the social conditions of the time, particularly the plight of orphans and the criminal underworld that preyed upon them. The publication of Oliver Twist was a watershed moment in English literature, and its vivid depictions of London's criminal underworld helped to shape the public's perception of the city and its inhabitants. This print, from Mary Evans Picture Library, is a rare and fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of Oliver Twist and the colorful characters that populate Dickens' timeless tale. It is a reminder of the power of literature to transport us to another time and place, and to shed light on the complexities of the human condition.
