EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases the iconic Dickens character, Mrs Wilfer, brought to life by the talented hand of Captain Edward Henry Handley-Read. The intricate details and masterful technique employed in this artwork truly capture the essence of this memorable literary figure. Mrs Wilfer, a character from Dickens' renowned novel "Our Mutual Friend" is depicted here with great finesse and nuance. Her facial expression reveals a complex mix of pride, haughtiness, and perhaps even a touch of vulnerability. It is as if she has stepped out from the pages of the book itself, ready to engage us with her intriguing personality. The lithograph was created for an adaptation titled "Scenes from Dickens" by Guy Pertwee and edited by Ernest Pertwee in 1910. This particular illustration perfectly encapsulates Mrs Wilfer's role within the story – a woman who seeks social status above all else but also harbors hidden desires and secrets. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to Victorian England, immersing ourselves in Charles Dickens' rich narrative world. The attention to detail in every aspect of this piece – from Mrs Wilfer's attire to her surroundings – serves as a testament to both Handley-Read's artistic prowess and his deep understanding of Dickens' characters. This lithograph print not only pays homage to one specific character but also celebrates the enduring power of literature itself. It serves as a reminder that these fictional personas continue to captivate audiences across
