EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Mary Hogarth, a significant figure in the life of Charles Dickens. Painted by Hablot Knight Browne (Phiz) and later reproduced as a watercolor by F. G. Kitton, this artwork showcases Mary's turned head and shoulders adorned with a delicate flower in her hair and breast. The circle of blue background adds an ethereal touch to the composition. Mary was not only a constant companion to Catherine during her courtship and early marriage to Dickens but also held great influence over him. Tragically, her untimely death at the tender age of seventeen deeply impacted Dickens, evident in his poignant descriptions of young female characters' deaths in his novels. Displayed at the Charles Dickens Museum in London, this piece serves as a testament to both Mary's significance in Dickens' personal life and her lasting impact on his literary works. The painting beautifully captures her youthful innocence while hinting at the profound sorrow that would follow. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to Victorian England, immersed in its rich literature and captivated by its iconic figures like Mary Hogarth. This print is not just an exquisite work of art; it is a window into history itself – reminding us of the power that art holds to preserve stories for generations to come.
