EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures the essence of this cultural event, showcasing a bustling street adorned with beautifully preserved Victorian buildings. As you gaze upon it, you can almost hear the enchanting melodies played by a marching band that leads a lively procession through the high street. The streets are filled with people dressed in elaborate costumes reminiscent of characters from Dickens' beloved stories. Amongst them stands an elegant lady, her eyes fixed on the passing parade as she immerses herself in this magical experience. Her attire reflects both fashion trends of that era and her admiration for these fictional characters brought to life. The image transports you back in time to an era when literature intertwined seamlessly with daily life. It serves as a reminder of how art has shaped our world and continues to inspire generations even today.
