EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Robinson Crusoe: The ship blew up in the air" transports viewers into the thrilling world of Daniel Defoe's iconic novel. Created by Joseph Finnemore in the early 20th century, this illustration captures a pivotal moment in Robinson Crusoe's harrowing adventure. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life the explosive scene as the ship is engulfed in flames and shattered into pieces. The artist skillfully depicts the sheer force of the explosion, with debris scattered across the sky. It is a testament to Finnemore's talent that one can almost hear the deafening blast and feel its reverberations. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of Robinson Crusoe's resilience and resourcefulness. Despite facing countless challenges on his deserted island, he never loses hope or succumbs to despair. This fictional character has become an enduring symbol of human endurance and survival against all odds. Finnemore's portrayal not only captures the intensity of this particular event but also serves as a visual representation of Robinson Crusoe's indomitable spirit throughout his extraordinary journey. This lithograph print offers us a glimpse into both Defoe's timeless narrative and Finnemore’s artistic interpretation. It reminds us why literature holds such power - it allows us to escape reality momentarily while inspiring our own courage and determination when faced with adversity.
