EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the character of Mrs Pardiggle, as depicted in Joseph Clayton Clarke's pen and ink with watercolor illustration from the 1920s. The artwork measures 28.5x22.5 cm and is housed in the Free Library of Philadelphia's Rare Book Department. Mrs Pardiggle comes to life through this exquisite portrayal, taken from Charles Dickens' renowned novel "Bleak House". Dressed in a Victorian-era costume complete with a bonnet and handbag, she exudes an air of arrogance and snootiness that perfectly captures her character. The artist skillfully captures every detail, from Mrs Pardiggle's bow-adorned hat to her poised figure holding a book. Her facial expression suggests a certain haughtiness that adds depth to her personality. This print not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also provides insight into the fashion and literary world of the early twentieth century. It offers viewers a glimpse into the characters brought to life by Dickens' words and allows us to appreciate their significance within his novels. Whether you are an art enthusiast or a fan of classic literature, this striking image will undoubtedly captivate your attention. Its historical value combined with its aesthetic appeal makes it a true treasure for any collection or display.
