About Now, I'll tell you what, my friend, said Scrooge. I am not going to stand this sort of thing any longer

The artwork titled “Now, I’ll tell you what, my friend,” said Scrooge. “I am not going to stand this sort of thing any longer” is created by Arthur Rackham and falls under the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement. This illustration is part of a series for “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens. The artwork portrays a scene within an interior setting, characterized by meticulous detailing and dynamic expressions true to Rackham’s distinctive illustrative style.

In the scene, an elderly man, stern and imposing, confronts a younger, anxious-looking individual. The elder stands assertively with one arm extended towards the younger man, who appears to be shrinking back toward an open doorway. Both figures are situated in a richly detailed room filled with books and shelves, lending a sense of depth and context to their interaction. The elder’s attire and posture denote authority, reinforced by the setting of an organized yet somewhat cluttered study or office space, illuminating the narrative tension captured in this moment.
