48 Doughty St, Charles Dickens House by Timothy Richards UK

$199.95

48 Doughty Street in Holborn, London Borough of Camden was the home of Charles Dickens from 25 March 1837 to December 1839. A typical Georgian terraced house slated for demolition in the 1920s but was purchased for the nation by the Dickens Fellowship and opened to the public as a museum.

The two years that Dickens lived in the house were extremely productive, for here he completed The Pickwick Papers (1836), wrote the whole of Oliver Twist (1838) and Nicholas Nickleby (1838–39) and worked on Barnaby Rudge (1840–41).

About Timothy Richards

For over 30 years, Timothy has been creating miniature architectural works for customers worldwide; he is still the only person globally making this type of work. The models are handmade in Bath by skilled artisans using British gypsum plaster.

Origins
This plasterwork quality dates back to Jean-Pierre Fouquet, who produced some of the finest plaster models in Paris around the 1820s. In Oxford in 1823, two patrons of the arts considered them so important that they raised a subscription to buy a large number. The University’s Bodleian Library prominently displayed the models in glass cases in the picture gallery.

Education remains at the heart of Tim’s models, and they will stand the test of time; he has produced over 200 commissions in over 30 years, with some of his more extensive works fetching as much as $400,000.
