Over 2,100 Illustrations From Charles Dickens Novels Now Available in Online Archive

When you think of “Dickensian literature,” foggy alleyways, forlorn orphans, or grotesque villains may come to mind. That’s due in part to the influence of illustrations meant to aid 1800s readers in envisioning the scenes, characters, and emotions.

During that time, more than 2,000 craftspeople, including architects, carpenters, and artisans, dedicated themselves to restoring the 862-year-old structure, returning it to its former glory. Now, thanks to a new initiative by Microsoft, Notre-Dame will be preserved in yet another—and perhaps even more permanent—way.
