The Orfling, c. 1920s
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating pen and ink with watercolor print that transports us back to the Victorian era. Created by Joseph Clayton Clarke (Kyd) in the early 20th century, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent for character illustration. The image depicts a young orphan girl standing solemnly in her tattered costume and bonnet. Covered in soot from head to toe, she represents the harsh realities of poverty during this time period. Holding a book tightly against her chest, it symbolizes her only solace amidst hardship. This poignant illustration is part of Thirty-Six Original Character Illustrations to David Copperfield, based on Charles Dickens' renowned novel published in installments in 1849. The artist beautifully captures the essence of one of Dickens' memorable characters - an innocent yet resilient figure facing adversity. The meticulous brushwork brings out every detail of the grimy surroundings and emphasizes the somber atmosphere surrounding the orphan girl. Through this piece, Kyd masterfully conveys both despair and hope within a single frame. Displayed at Free Library of Philadelphia's Rare Book Department, "The Orfling" serves as a reminder of the power literature holds to shed light on societal issues while immortalizing unforgettable characters like David Copperfield's Orfling. This print not only pays homage to British literary heritage but also stands as an enduring testament to Kyd's artistic brilliance.
