Summary[edit]
DescriptionCharles Dickens characters.jpg |
"Characters from the books of Charles Dickens." Library of Congress description: "An elderly man, possibly Charles Dickens, seated in a chair as a mob of fictional characters from books by Dickens passes before him." The man seated in the chair is more probably Mr. Pickwick, a character from Charles Dickens’ first novel The Pickwick Papers, listening to his astute and humorous valet, Sam Weller, as he points out other characters from Dickens’ books. For example, midway up the left edge, from A Christmas Carol, are Ebenezer Scrooge in a night cap, and Bob Cratchit carrying his crippled son, Tiny Tim. In the bottom left corner, from The Old Curiosity Shop, are Little Nell and her grandfather. Fagin, from Oliver Twist, is third from the left in the front row with Mr. Bumble (in the bicorn or cocked hat), his wife Widow Corney, Oliver Twist, the Artful Dodger, and Charley Bates nearby. |
