EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a set of the ten monthly parts of the first octavo edition of the serialised publication of "The Adventures of Oliver Twist" by Charles Dickens. Created in 1846, this collection features etched plates on paper and measures 22.3 x 14.2cm each. Renowned artist George Cruikshank (1792-1878) beautifully illustrated this iconic work, capturing the essence and drama of Dickens' fictional masterpiece. The black background adds depth to Cruikshank's intricate decorative technique, making each plate a visual delight. Displayed against a mounted paper backdrop, these prints transport viewers back to mid-19th century England, immersing them in the world created by both author and illustrator. This close-up shot allows us to appreciate every detail meticulously engraved by Cruikshank's skilled hand. As we gaze upon this remarkable collection, we are reminded of the enduring power and influence that literature holds over our imaginations. The characters come alive through Cruikshank's illustrations, breathing life into Dickens' words. A true treasure for any lover of English art or literature enthusiasts alike, this group of objects represents an important piece from British artistic history. With no people present in the image itself, it is left up to our own imagination to explore the depths and complexities within these pages. Overall, this print captures not only a significant moment in literary history but also highlights George Cruikshank's immense talent as an artist during his time.
