EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the original wrapper of Charles Dickens' novel "Dombey & Son," published in 1846. The intricate design features a comic illustration of characters falling, hinting at the dramatic and historical themes within the pages of this classic work. As one of Dickens' earlier novels, "Dombey & Son" tells the story of Mr. Dombey, a wealthy merchant whose obsession with his son leads to tragic consequences.
The wrapper itself is a piece of history, offering a glimpse into the world of publishing in the mid-19th century. With its vibrant colors and detailed artwork, it serves as both an artistic representation and a marketing tool for attracting readers to this timeless tale.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to when books were cherished possessions and reading was a popular form of entertainment. The wrapper's inclusion of playing cards suggests themes of chance and fate that play out throughout the novel.
Overall, this print is not just a visual representation but also a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate both the literary significance and artistic beauty encapsulated within its pages.
