EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Robinson Crusoe: Destruction of the tartar idol" takes us back to an early 20th-century edition of Daniel Defoe's timeless novel. Created by Joseph Finnemore, this colour lithograph beautifully captures a pivotal moment in the story. The image depicts Robinson Crusoe, the iconic fictional character, engaged in a fierce battle against idol worshippers who have gathered around their cult site. With determination etched on his face, Crusoe demolishes the monstrous tartar idol that symbolizes heathen worship and idolatry. The vibrant colours used in this lithograph bring life to this climactic scene, highlighting both the destruction and triumph. As one of literature's most beloved authors and novelists, Defoe's work continues to captivate readers with its rich storytelling. This illustration serves as a testament to his ability to create wonderful characters like Robinson Crusoe who embark on extraordinary journeys. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of this lithograph. From the intricate design of the tartar idol to Crusoe's determined expression, each element adds depth and emotion to the scene. It is through images like these that we can truly appreciate how art enhances our understanding and appreciation for great works of literature. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us not only to admire Finnemore's artistic talent but also invites us into Defoe's world where adventure meets moral introspection.
