EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases a fascinating connection between two iconic figures: Sir Robert Peel and the fictional character Pecksniff from Charles Dickens' renowned novel, "The Charles Dickens Originals". The 19th-century English School artist beautifully captures the essence of Peel, who is believed to be a possible inspiration for the morally ambiguous Pecksniff. Displayed in a private collection, this litho print offers a glimpse into the sources that influenced one of English literature's most memorable characters. Edwin Pugh's book, "The Charles Dickens Originals" delves into the characterisation process employed by Dickens himself. This illustration serves as an intriguing visual representation of Pugh's exploration. Sir Robert Peel was not only a prominent figure in British history but also an enigmatic personality whose traits may have inspired Dickens when creating Pecksniff. Through this engraving, we can observe the subtle nuances and similarities between these two individuals. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from their Fine Art Finder collection without any commercial intent. It allows us to appreciate how art can bridge different realms - historical figures influencing literary creations and artists immortalising them through their craft. This litho print invites us to ponder upon the intricate connections within our cultural heritage while celebrating both artistic expression and intellectual curiosity.
