Charles Dickens Home To House His Artefacts: Tech News updates in India
In London, a museum houses items owned and used by the charismatic writer of the 19th century Charles Dickens.
The exhibition is to hail 100 years, as Dickens’s initial family abode in Doughty Street, Bloomsbury, which was spared from demolition and later was declared a museum dedicated to such a great writer.
Length Of Exhibition: Tech News updates in Inda.
The exhibition will be held from Feb through June while the centre of attraction will be the chalk and pastel sketch of Dickens when he was a dweller there.
Dickens lived in the house while writing the stories that made him a global literary success, including Nicholas Nickleby, Oliver Twist, and The Pickwick Papers.
A blubber-strained copy of David Copperfield, which was brought to Antarctica by
Captain Scott’s 1910-12 Terra Nova expedition, is one of the treasures.
The book is blackened with the crew’s fingerprints, which are probably caused by the seal blubber fire that heated the ice cave where they were stranded for sixty nights, reading a chapter every night.
Dickens’ favourite illustrators, such as Hablot Knight Browne, John Leech, George Cruikshank, and Fred Barnard, as well as early sketches for the original edition of A Christmas Carol, will also be on exhibit.

Dickens’s only surviving house in London, a beacon at the centre of the urban landscape quintessentially associated with the writer, the Museum in Doughty Street will be filled with objects that define Dickens’s life and the Museum’s history.”
Charles Dickens’s life and works will be illuminated by the exhibition’s personal possessions, portraits, pictures, and historic objects, according to the museum director Cindy Sughrue.
The sole remaining London home where Dickens resided was in Bloomsbury, where he lived from 1837 to 1839 with his wide ad kid.
The museum will open its Dickens on Doughty Street: 100 Years of the Charles Dickens Museum exhibit on February 5.
