EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Oliver asks for more (chromolitho)" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the world of Charles Dickens' iconic novel, Oliver Twist. The image depicts a pivotal moment from the story as young Oliver bravely approaches his stern overseer and dares to ask for more food. The chromolitho technique used in this print brings vibrancy and depth to every detail, allowing us to truly appreciate the skill of the English School artist who created it. The colors are rich and evocative, enhancing our connection with these beloved characters. Oliver's innocence is palpable as he stands before his workhouse master, embodying both vulnerability and determination. This scene encapsulates the harsh realities faced by children during that era while also highlighting their resilience and unwavering spirit. Published in a booklet entitled "Dickens Pictures" this artwork captures an important aspect of English literature history. It serves as a visual reminder of Dickens' ability to shed light on social injustices through his compelling storytelling. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our Private Collection, we cannot help but be transported into Oliver's world – a world where hunger meets courage, where poverty clashes with hope. It is an invitation to reflect on our own humanity and consider how far society has come since those challenging times.
