EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and comical illustration captures the whimsical world of Charles Dickens' beloved character, Mr. Winkle, as he mounts his trusty steed. Taken from the pages of "The Pickwick Papers" this colourful engraving by Arthur Burdett Frost brings to life the humorous adventures of Mr. Winkle and his fellow members of the Pickwick Club. In this particular scene, we see Mr. Winkle preparing to embark on a carriage ride with an air of trepidation mixed with excitement. His exaggerated expressions and awkward posture perfectly convey his lack of equestrian skill, making for a truly comical sight. The attention to detail in Frost's artwork is remarkable; from the intricate engravings that depict every strand of horsehair to the lively expressions on both man and beast, it is evident that this print was created with great care and precision. As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are transported back in time to Victorian England, where horses were not just modes of transportation but also cherished companions. The connection between Mr. Winkle and his steed is palpable - one can almost hear their conversation as they prepare for their adventure together. This print serves as a delightful reminder of Dickens' timeless storytelling abilities and continues to bring joy to admirers around the world today.
