EDITORS COMMENTS
Robinson Crusoe: Death of Friday (colour litho) captures a poignant moment in the timeless tale of Robinson Crusoe, as depicted by Joseph Finnemore. This stunning colour lithograph, part of a private collection, showcases the artist's skill and attention to detail. The image portrays the heart-wrenching scene where Friday, Robinson Crusoe's loyal companion and friend, meets his tragic end. The vibrant colours bring life to this early 20th-century illustration from an unidentified edition of Daniel Defoe's classic novel. Finnemore masterfully conveys the emotions surrounding death and mortality through his artistry. The viewer is drawn into the story as they witness Friday's passing, feeling both sorrow for his loss and admiration for his unwavering loyalty. This print serves as a testament to the power of literature and its ability to transport us into different worlds. It reminds us of the impact fictional characters can have on our lives – how they become companions that we mourn when they are taken away. As we gaze upon this remarkable lithograph, we are reminded once again of Robinson Crusoe's journey – one filled with adventure, resilience, and profound connections. Through Finnemore's interpretation, Friday becomes more than just a character; he becomes a symbol of friendship and sacrifice that resonates with readers across generations.
