Charles Dickens in 1868 details
Notes:
From a photograph by Mason. Reproduced in “The Dickens Country” by kind permission of Messrs. Chapman and Hall
“On the page opposite to that which contains this touching picture we have placed a rmarkably handsome photograph of the great novelist as he was in the height of his fame. What a striking contrast! What a world of life-emotion and life-history there lies between one picture and the other! These illustrations are both in Mr. Kitton’s volume, and are reproduced herewith by kind permission of Messrs. Chapman and Hall.” (p. 550)
