Product details

A minimalist book poster inspired by Hard Times, Charles Dickens's unflinching portrait of industrial England. This literary art print evokes the smoke-filled streets of Victorian Manchester and the rigid utilitarianism embodied by Thomas Gradgrind. A stark yet quietly powerful design for readers who appreciate social realism and Dickens's critique of Victorian morality. Perfect for a home library, study, or gallery wall — ideal for English teachers, classic literature lovers, and fans of nineteenth-century fiction.

The Square edition of Hard Times is a literary art print in balanced, symmetrical composition — designed for gallery walls and curated layouts. Its square format makes it elegant in any literary display.

✦ Square-format print with three exclusive colour variations (Style X, Y, Z)
