EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases an iconic scene from Charles Dickens' renowned novel, "Martin Chuzzlewit". Created in 1923 by Joseph Clayton Clarke (Kyd), this colour lithograph brings to life the beloved characters of Martin Chuzzlewit, Sairey Gamp, and Mark Tapley. Taken from a series of Character Sketches produced as cigarette cards by John Player & Sons, this print exudes both nostalgia and artistic brilliance. The attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing the essence of each character with precision and humor. On the left stands Martin Chuzzlewit himself, portrayed with a mix of seriousness and vulnerability. His presence commands attention as he navigates through the complexities of Victorian society. To his right is Sairey Gamp, a comical yet shrewd nurse known for her eccentricities. Her exaggerated features add a touch of whimsy to the composition. Lastly, we have Mark Tapley on the far right – an optimistic young man who serves as both comic relief and moral compass throughout the story. The vintage aesthetic transports us back in time to Dickensian England, immersing us in its rich literary heritage. This print not only pays homage to one of literature's greatest authors but also captures our imagination with its vivid portrayal of unforgettable characters. It serves as a reminder that even after almost a century since its creation, Dickens' work continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
