EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide image transports us back in time to the late 19th century and the bustling streets of Victorian London, specifically the iconic London Bridge. The focal point of the photograph is the renowned English novelist, Charles Dickens, who is depicted standing on the bridge, deep in thought as he gazes at the river Thames below. Charles Dickens (1812-1870), one of the most celebrated authors in English literature, is known for his mastery of storytelling and his vivid portrayal of urban life. His works, including "Oliver Twist," "A Tale of Two Cities," and "Great Expectations," have left an indelible mark on literature and continue to captivate readers around the world. The London Bridge in the background is a fitting setting for this scene, as it was a popular location for Dickens' stories. The bridge, with its Gothic towers and intricate details, is a symbol of the historical significance and grandeur of the city. The hustle and bustle of the crowd in the foreground adds to the sense of energy and excitement that characterized life in Victorian London. This intriguing lantern slide, part of Box 330 in the Charles Dickens (Life and Works) collection, dates back to the 1890s. It offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the history and culture of the time through the eyes of one of the greatest literary figures in history.
