EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration, captured by the talented Harry Furniss, brings to life one of Charles Dickens' most iconic characters - Miss Havisham. Taken from the Testimonial Edition published in 1910, this print beautifully portrays the tragic figure of Miss Havisham from the classic novel "Great Expectations". In this sketch, we see Miss Havisham depicted in her hauntingly ethereal bridal gown. Her ghostly appearance is enhanced by her disheveled hair and pale complexion, evoking a sense of sorrow and despair. The attention to detail in Furniss' drawing allows us to fully immerse ourselves in the world of Victorian England. As we delve into Dickens' masterpiece, we discover that Miss Havisham's character embodies themes such as heartbreak, betrayal, and lost expectations. This illustration perfectly captures these elements through its classical style and meticulous execution. Furniss skillfully captures not only the physical attributes but also the emotional depth of Miss Havisham's character. Through his artistry, he invites us to explore her story further - a tale filled with love gone wrong and shattered dreams. This print serves as a reminder of Charles Dickens' enduring legacy as an English novelist whose works continue to captivate readers even over a century later. It stands as a testament to both Dickens' literary genius and Furniss' artistic prowess. Ken Welsh has expertly preserved this piece for our enjoyment today – allowing us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its timeless beauty
