| Summary | "Dickens and His Illustrators" by Frederic George Kitton is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the collaboration between Charles Dickens and his various illustrators, highlighting their artistic contributions to his works. The subject matter primarily delves into the evolution of illustrations associated with Dickens's novels and sketches, emphasizing the influence of these visual elements on the reader's experience and the characters' representations. The opening of the work presents a preface that establishes the unique significance of Dickens's writings in the realm of illustrated literature. Kitton discusses the remarkable array of illustrations that accompanied Dickens's original publications and later editions, noting the comprehensive nature of these artistic enhancements. The text reflects on the sometimes complex relationship Dickens had with his illustrators, particularly pointing out that while he had high standards for their work, he often felt disappointed by the results. Kitton aims to shed light on the artistic processes behind the illustrations and the collaborative dynamics between the novelist and his illustrators throughout Dickens's career.
