Down a Slide at Cornhill, 1915 - A Whimsical Journey into Dickensian Merriment
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This enchanting print captures the essence of joy and merriment in the heart of Cornhill during Christmas time in 1915. Illustrated by Arthur Rackham, this delightful scene is an illustration from Charles Dickens' timeless masterpiece, "A Christmas Carol". At first glance, we are transported to a bustling street corner adorned with festive decorations. Amidst the snow-covered cobblestones and flickering gas lamps, a group of characters eagerly gather around a towering slide that promises endless fun and enjoyment. The central figure catches our attention - Bob Cratchit himself - sliding down with his top hat askew and a wide grin on his face. His infectious laughter echoes through the air as he embraces the childlike wonder that embodies this holiday season. Surrounded by stacks of books and other literary treasures, this whimsical scene reminds us of the power of literature to transport us to magical worlds beyond our own. The characters come alive before our eyes as they partake in this exhilarating adventure down the slippery slope. In this snapshot frozen in time, Rackham's vibrant colors bring out every detail - from the intricate illustrations on each book cover to the twinkling lights adorning nearby buildings. It is truly a feast for both the eyes and imagination. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be reminded of Dickens' enduring legacy and how his stories continue to touch hearts
