Published in Vanity Fair in 1848, this iconic drawing is a characteristic specimen of Thackeray's work as an illustrator. The subject of the illustration is Rebecca Sharp, a central character from Thackeray's novel "Vanity Fair." In this drawing, Becky is depicted standing on Lombard Street, a bustling financial district in London, with an air of self-assured confidence. Thackeray masterfully captures the essence of Becky's character through his intricate line work and subtle facial expressions. Thackeray's illustrations were an integral part of "Vanity Fair," which was initially published as a serial in the magazine of the same name. The novel, known for its satirical commentary on English society and its biting wit, quickly gained popularity due in large part to Thackeray's illustrations. This image of Becky in Lombard Street is a testament to Thackeray's ability to bring his characters to life through his art. The historical significance of this drawing lies not only in its connection to Thackeray's groundbreaking novel but also in its representation of the social and cultural landscape of 19th-century London. The image offers a glimpse into the fashion, architecture, and daily life of the time, making it an invaluable contribution to the historical record. In conclusion, this drawing of Becky in Lombard Street is a characteristic specimen of Thackeray's work as an illustrator and a valuable historical artifact. It offers a unique insight into the world of "Vanity Fair" and the social and cultural context of 19th-century England.
