EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary Washington Irving (1783-1859) alongside his iconic literary creation, Diedrich Knickerbocker. The etching, taken from The Knickerbocker, New York Monthly Magazine in 1834, beautifully captures the essence of these two influential figures from the 19th century American literary scene. Washington Irving, a renowned writer and historian, is widely celebrated for his contributions to American literature. His imaginative storytelling and vivid descriptions have left an indelible mark on readers throughout generations. In this image, we see him standing proudly next to his fictional alter ego - Diedrich Knickerbocker. Diedrich Knickerbocker himself has become synonymous with Irving's work. As a character created by Irving in his satirical novel "A History of New-York". Knickerbocker embodies the quintessential old-fashioned New Yorker – eccentric and full of charm. The etching perfectly captures both men's distinct personalities – Washington Irving exuding intelligence and creativity while Diedrich Knickerbocker emanates wit and humor. Their camaraderie is palpable as they stand side by side in this timeless piece of art. This print serves as a tribute to Washington Irving's immense talent as a writer and storyteller who brought characters like Diedrich Knickerbocker to life through his words. It reminds us of their enduring legacy within American literature and invites us to delve into their fascinating world once again.
