Dickens his wife Kate and her sister Georgina with the Dickens's five children and several servants left London by coach on July 2 1844 bound for Italy. After one month's stay in the Villa Pallavicino della Peschiere in Genoa where Dickens wrote The Chimes he and Kate left the children with Georgina and traveled south stopping first in Pisa and Florence. In Rome Dickens was captivated by the ruins practically overcome he later said by the sight of the Coliseum. They also visited Herculaneum and Pompeii making a perilous ascent to the rim of Vesuvius and peering into the "Hell of boiling fire below." Dickens published reports of his journey in the Daily News as a series of eight "Travelling Letters. Written on the Road." Pictures from Italy incorporating the letters with five chapters added appeared in book form on May 18 1846 but not before hitting a rather tortuous bump in the road: "Clarkson Stanfield had agreed to illustrate the text for Dickens but when he read those passages of the narrative in which Dickens satirises the excesses of Catholic devotion he resigned from the project. Stanfield was himself a prominent English Catholic after all as Dickens knew and he could scarcely be connected with a publication which treats his Church's ritual as little more than a parade of mummers. . . . As usual Dickens went at once into action in order to find a substitute; fortunately and curiously he chose a young artist who then had no real reputation Samuel Palmer whose wonderful illustrations are not the least of the merits of Pictures from Italy in its final state" Ackroyd Dickens pp. 491-92.
