EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the intriguing world of Charles Dickens' "Barnaby Rudge: A Tale of the Riots of 'Eighty," published in 1841. The dapper gentleman depicted in the photograph is Dick Swiveller, a character known for his curiosity and resourcefulness. In the novel, Dick Swiveller, dressed in a top hat, necktie, and a schoolboy's blazer, inherits a substantial sum of money from his late aunt. With newfound wealth, he puts his cousin, Emma, through school to ensure a better future for her. Later, he marries the beautiful and intelligent Lady Dedlock's maid, Dolly Varden, who is later revealed to be the Marchioness. The old-fashioned curiosity shop in the background adds to the historical context of the scene, with its intriguing assortment of books, trinkets, and oddities. Dick Swiveller's smoking pipe further emphasizes the era's atmosphere. This photograph, with its rich details and authentic period costumes, offers a glimpse into the intriguing world of Dickens' literature and the social norms of the 19th century. It's a fascinating reminder of a time when a young man's curiosity and kindness could change the course of someone's life, and when a single inheritance could provide opportunities for a better future. The intricate details of Dick Swiveller's attire, from his tie to his hat, add to the overall historical authenticity of the image. This photograph is a must-have for any Dickens enthusiast or history buff, providing a unique and captivating glimpse into the past.
