EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Richard (Dick) Whittington, a prominent figure in English history. The illustration, skillfully crafted by Gustave Dore, depicts a young Dick standing at Highgate, his ears perked up as he listens to the distant sound of bells echoing through the city. These enchanting chimes carry with them a prophetic message: "Turn again Whittington, Lord Mayor of London". Whittington's story is one of rags to riches; he started as an impoverished boy but went on to become not just one, but three times Lord Mayor of London during the 14th and 15th centuries. His rise to power was fueled by his entrepreneurial spirit as an esteemed merchant and his unwavering commitment to philanthropy. The wood engraving beautifully portrays this legendary tale that has been passed down through generations. It transports us back in time to witness Dick's humble beginnings and serves as a reminder that dreams can indeed come true. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded of Whittington's enduring legacy - a man who defied social barriers and left an indelible mark on British history. This print is not just an image frozen in time; it represents hope, ambition, and the triumph of perseverance over adversity.
