The artwork, titled “Then old Fezziwig stood out to dance with Mrs. Fezziwig”, is an illustration by Arthur Rackham, associated with the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement. This illustration is part of a series for “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens.
In the artwork, a joyous scene is depicted where old Fezziwig is merrily dancing with Mrs. Fezziwig. The characters are illustrated with delicate, flowing lines, characteristic of Arthur Rackham’s unique style. Fezziwig appears with a spirited expression, extending his hand towards Mrs. Fezziwig, who is adorned in a voluminous, detailed dress made vibrant with shades of blue and floral patterns. The wooden floor beneath their feet and the slightly blurred background contribute to the lively and dynamic atmosphere, capturing the festive spirit of the moment.
