The viewer is transported back in time as they observe the grief-stricken grandfather cradling his beloved grandaughter's lifeless body. Through this powerful sketch, Furniss showcases his deep understanding of Dickens' characters and their social struggles. His masterful use of light and shadow adds an additional layer of depth to the composition, evoking a sense of melancholy that echoes throughout English literature.
