Miss Lucretia Tox, a Captivating Character from Charles Dickens' Dombey & Son
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases Miss Lucretia Tox, a beloved character brought to life by the talented artist Joseph Clayton Clarke (Kyd) in the 1920s. The exquisite pen and ink with watercolor on paper technique beautifully captures Miss Tox's pensive expression as she gazes into the distance. Originally featured in Thirty Original Character Illustrations to Dombey & Son, this artwork is an homage to Charles Dickens' timeless literary masterpiece. Published in installments between 1846 and 1848, Dombey & Son tells a compelling story of family dynamics and societal struggles during Victorian times. In this illustration, we see Miss Lucretia Tox portrayed in full length, her figure emanating elegance and grace. Her thoughtful pose suggests deep contemplation as she navigates the complexities of her role within the narrative. The Free Library of Philadelphia proudly houses this rare gem within its Rare Book Department. This particular piece measures 28.5 x 22.5 cm and serves as a testament to Kyd's artistic prowess and his ability to bring characters from literature to life through his brushstrokes. As you admire this enchanting portrayal of Miss Lucretia Tox, let your imagination wander into the world created by Charles Dickens where characters like her come alive with every turn of the page.
