EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the character of Cleopatra, also known as The Honourable Mrs Skewton, from Charles Dickens' novel "Dombey & Son". Created in the 1920s by Joseph Clayton Clarke (Kyd), this pen and ink with watercolor on paper artwork measures 28.5x22.5 cm and is housed in the Free Library of Philadelphia's Rare Book Department. In this illustration, Cleopatra stands tall and elegant, her fan held delicately in one hand. Her full-length figure exudes grace and sophistication, capturing the essence of a distinguished lady from another era. With a pointed finger, she seems to be emphasizing an important point or perhaps directing attention to something significant within the story. The artist's attention to detail brings out every nuance of Cleopatra's character. From her stylish attire to her expressive facial features, each element contributes to her portrayal as a memorable literary figure. This artwork is part of a collection titled "Thirty Original Character Illustrations" created specifically for "Dombey & Son" which was originally published between 1846-48. As we admire this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of Charles Dickens' genius in creating complex characters but also of Kyd's talent in bringing them vividly to life through his illustrations. This print serves as both an homage to these timeless literary works and as a testament to the enduring power that art holds over our imagination.
