EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable illustration from the book "The Vicar of Wakefield" by Oliver Goldsmith.

In this particular scene, we witness a heartwarming interaction between two characters: the Squire and a poor woman. As they stand side by side, it becomes apparent that their physical stature is strikingly similar. The caption accompanying the image reveals that on occasion, the woman would express her belief to the Squire that he and Olivia (presumably another character) share an uncanny resemblance in size. Oliver Goldsmith, an esteemed Irish author and physician who lived during the 1700s, penned this beloved novel in 1766. His literary prowess shines through as he weaves together a tale filled with charm and wit. William Mulready's exquisite drawing skillfully captures both the essence of these characters and their historical context. This print serves as a testament to his talent as well as his ability to bring written words to life through visual artistry.
