EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vivid and colorful lithograph of the infamous Dick Turpin, created by an English School artist in the 19th century. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured as an illustration for "Dick Turpin" in the Bow Bells Nursery Tales series, published by J Dicks around 1870. The artwork captures the essence of adventure and folklore surrounding this legendary highwayman. Known for his daring escapades on horseback, Turpin's story has become intertwined with tales of heroism and romance. In this particular scene, we witness him alongside his faithful steed, Black Bess. However, there is a sense of tragedy that permeates through the image. With Turpin lying lifeless on the ground, it appears that he has met his demise. Perhaps it serves as a cautionary tale or a reminder that even famous figures can meet their untimely end. The inclusion of gypsy imagery adds another layer to this composition - perhaps symbolizing warnings or premonitions associated with Turpin's fate. Overall, this historic piece offers us a glimpse into both fact and fiction surrounding one of England's most notorious characters from centuries past.
