EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Ghostly Knocker" captures a haunting moment from Charles Dickens' beloved novella, A Christmas Carol. Illustrated by the talented Harry Furniss for the Testimonial Edition of 1910, this image brings to life one of the story's most eerie scenes. In this illustration, we see Scrooge confronted by a ghostly knocker that bears an uncanny resemblance to Marley. The spectacles perched on its forehead and its wide-open, motionless eyes send shivers down our spines. Its livid color adds to its horror, making it a truly chilling sight. Furniss skillfully portrays the atmosphere of Victorian England through his detailed sketching technique. This classic piece of artwork transports us back in time and immerses us in the world created by Dickens. As we gaze upon this illustration, we are reminded of the power of literature to evoke emotions and transport us into different realms. It serves as a testament to Dickens' genius as a writer and his ability to create enduring characters that continue to captivate readers even after more than a century. This print is not just an homage to A Christmas Carol but also an ode to English literature itself. It embodies the spirit of Christmas while showcasing the talent and creativity of both Charles Dickens and Harry Furniss.
