EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pair of exquisite candelabra figures dating back to the early 19th century. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these ornate candlesticks feature brass bases adorned with delicate porcelain figures. The female figure is depicted wearing an elegant outer-skirt in shades of pink, blue, and gold trimmings, while the male figure serves as the sturdy base for both pieces. Originally acquired by renowned author Charles Dickens during his time living abroad in Genoa, Italy, these stunning candlesticks now find their home at the Charles Dickens Museum in London. Their presence adds a touch of Victorian charm and literary history to this esteemed institution. The craftsmanship evident in these candelabra figures reflects the opulence and refinement characteristic of British ornamentation during this period. With their intricate design and hand-painted details, they serve as a testament to the artistic skill that went into creating such decorative objects. As you gaze upon this photograph, you are transported back in time to an era when elegance reigned supreme. These candelabra figures not only illuminate any space they grace but also offer a glimpse into the world that inspired one of England's most beloved authors – Charles Dickens himself.
