EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "POOR MISS FINCH, 1871" transports us back to a moment of intense emotion in Wilkie Collins' novel. The image depicts Mr. Finch, frozen in horror as he gazes upon the pitiful condition of Miss Finch. Engraved with meticulous detail, this American illustration from 1871 captures the essence of despair and domestic tragedy. The scene unfolds within an interior setting, where an elderly man stands beside a blind woman - Poor Miss Finch herself. Their expressions tell a story of heartbreak and anguish that resonates deeply with the viewer. It is evident that Mr. Finch has stumbled upon something truly shocking; his face etched with disbelief at what he witnesses before him. The engraving skillfully conveys the late 19th-century atmosphere through its attention to period-specific details such as clothing styles and interior decor. This adds authenticity to the narrative unfolding within the frame. Granger Art on Demand's reproduction allows us to appreciate not only Wilkie Collins' literary genius but also the artistic talent behind this evocative illustration. As we gaze into this snapshot from history, we are reminded of how art can transport us across time and space, allowing us to experience emotions long past.
