EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Artful Dodger at Work: The Artful Dodger Teaches Oliver to Pickpocket from the Rich," is a historical snapshot taken from Charles Dickens' classic novel "Oliver Twist," published in 1836. The novel, a seminal work in English literature, follows the story of Oliver Twist, an orphan who runs away from the workhouse and falls in with a group of pickpockets led by the cunning and charismatic Artful Dodger. In this scene, the Artful Dodger, portrayed as a suave and debonair figure, is shown teaching Oliver the art of pickpocketing from the unsuspecting rich. The 37-year-old Dodger, with a confident smirk on his face, leads Oliver by the hand, guiding him through the intricacies of the craft. The young Oliver, wide-eyed and eager, looks up to his mentor, absorbing every word and gesture. The image, published by Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of Dickens' vivid and intriguing portrayal of the criminal underworld in 19th-century London. The rich, with their extravagant attire and airs of superiority, are shown as easy targets for the resourceful and cunning urchins. The lead books and other pickpocketing tools in the foreground serve as a stark reminder of the harsh realities of poverty and survival in the era. The Artful Dodger, a character both sympathetic and sinister, has become an enduring icon of Dickens' works and of English literature as a whole. This image offers a unique glimpse into the world of Oliver Twist and the intriguing character of the Artful Dodger, a figure both astray from society and a master of his own craft.
