EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the late 19th century, where we encounter the enigmatic figure of Wilkie Collins. William Wilkie Collins was a renowned English novelist whose works continue to captivate readers even today. This caricature, created by Frederick Waddy in 1872, offers a whimsical and playful portrayal of the esteemed author. Collins is depicted with exaggerated features that highlight his distinct personality and creative genius. The artist's skillful use of parody adds an element of humor to the image, inviting viewers into Collins' imaginative world. Despite being a cartoon representation, there is an undeniable sense of depth and complexity captured within his eyes - windows into the brilliant mind behind beloved novels such as "The Woman in White". Surrounded by other men in this illustration, it becomes evident that Collins was not only respected but also admired within literary circles during his time. His influence on Victorian literature cannot be overstated; he pioneered detective fiction alongside close friend Charles Dickens and left an indelible mark on popular culture. This print serves as both a tribute to Wilkie Collins' enduring legacy and a reminder of the power of imagination found within great literature. It invites us to delve deeper into his works while appreciating the wit and charm encapsulated within this delightful caricature by Frederick Waddy.
