EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the posthumous portrait of Charles Dickens and his beloved characters in "Dickens's Dream". Painted by Robert William Buss in 1875, five years after the author's passing, this oil on canvas masterpiece pays homage to Dickens's extraordinary imagination. The painting depicts a scene set in Dickens's library at Gads Hill, with characters from all his books surrounding him. Buss drew inspiration from Luke Fildes' "Empty Chair" for the setting, while he accurately recreated Dickens's figure from a renowned photograph taken by John Watkins in 1863. This remarkable composition celebrates not only Dickens as an esteemed literary figure but also his enduring legacy through his unforgettable characters. From Pickwick to Edwin Drood, these iconic figures come to life within the frame of this artwork. Each character represents a different facet of Victorian society that Dickens so brilliantly captured throughout his works. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported into the dreamlike world created by one of literature's greatest minds. Displayed at the Charles Dickens Museum in London, this painting serves as a testament to both Buss's admiration for Dickens and his contribution to British literature. It is a visual representation of how dreams can transcend reality and leave an indelible mark on our collective consciousness.
