EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Oliver asks for More (colour litho)" by Harold Copping takes us back to the world of Charles Dickens' iconic novel, Oliver Twist. The image showcases a pivotal moment in the story when young Oliver dares to ask for more food at the workhouse, defying societal norms and sparking a chain of events that will shape his destiny. Copping's vibrant color lithograph beautifully captures the essence of this timeless literary character. The attention to detail brings out Oliver's innocence and vulnerability as he stands before an austere group of authority figures, pleading for sustenance. This scene serves as a powerful reminder of the social injustices prevalent during Victorian England. The illustration was originally created by B. W Matz for "Character Sketches from Dickens" published by Raphael Tuck around 1905. It is now part of a private collection, adding to its rarity and significance. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into Dickensian London, where poverty and hardship coexist with resilience and hope. Through Oliver's journey, we witness themes such as class struggle, compassion, and redemption that continue to resonate with readers across generations. This artwork not only celebrates one of literature's most beloved characters but also pays homage to Charles Dickens' profound impact on English literature. It serves as a visual testament to the enduring power of storytelling in capturing human experiences throughout history.
