Dickens and Little Nell (Elwell)
Dickens and Little Nell is a bronze sculpture by Francis Edwin Elwell that stands in Clark Park in the Spruce Hill neighborhood of Philadelphia. The sculpture depicts the 19th-century British author Charles Dickens and Nell Trent, a character from his 1840-41 novel The Old Curiosity Shop. The grouping was one of the most celebrated American sculptural works of the late 19th century, but by the early 21st century had become somewhat obscure. It is one of just two known statues of Dickens, who said he wanted no such representations.
