EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration, titled "The Last Of Quilp" beautifully captures the essence of Charles Dickens' classic novel, The Old Curiosity Shop. Created by talented artist Harry Furniss for the Testimonial Edition published in 1910, this print transports us back to the Victorian era with its intricate details and evocative imagery. In this scene, we witness the demise of one of literature's most memorable characters - Daniel Quilp. With a masterful stroke of his pen, Furniss brings Quilp's dark and twisted personality to life as he portrays him on his final journey. The sketch depicts an eerie atmosphere as Quilp lies dead on a deserted shore after drowning in mysterious circumstances. As we gaze upon this illustration, we are reminded of Dickens' unparalleled ability to delve into the depths of human nature and explore society's underbelly. Through his vivid storytelling and complex characters like Quilp, Dickens shines a light on social issues prevalent during that time. Furniss' skillful drawing technique adds another layer to this visual narrative; every line seems purposefully placed to convey emotion and capture our imagination. This timeless piece serves as a testament to both Dickens' enduring literary legacy and Furniss' artistic prowess. Whether you are an avid reader or simply appreciate classical literature, this print is sure to transport you into the enchanting world created by Charles Dickens in The Old Curiosity Shop.
