Later this week Mad Duck Posters will be releasing a new print in their Classic Literature Series by artist Jonathan Burton for a book that has become a timeless holiday favorite, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol! As Burton explained, “This was a great occasion to get into the character studies as described in Dickens’ novel. The concept plays with the idea of these ghosts being in his shadow to haunt him and I like the circularity of the image that leads up the image, in order of appearance, back down to his grave.”
The artist went on to say, “A Ghost Story of Christmas is the novels subtitle and it's the dark and moody atmosphere that I feel is the most fun to concentrate on. Christmas is a time for spooky stories around the log fire and I hope this poster haunts you. That these ghost of Past, Present and Future remind you of the the story’s message that time is fleeting but it’s never too late to open out hearts to the pain and struggle (and love) of others.” This awesome poster will be available in both a Regular Edition and Variant, and both will go on sale at 12pm EST this Wednesday, December 20th, at the Mad Duck Posters online store.
