Charles Dickens’s world of interiors – in pictures (photo gallery)

From his time at his first London home, Charles Dickens was fascinated with interior decoration and threw himself into the choosing of furniture, paint colours and wallpaper designs as well as the installation of a shower and a conservatory. Here, we show some of the rooms in his first home at 48 Doughty Street in London (now the Charles Dickens Museum), his holiday home in Broadstairs, Kent, and Gad’s Hill Place, Kent, where he died in 1870.
