EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from George Eliot's renowned novel, "Adam Bede" we witness a fateful encounter between Hetty Sorrel and the young squire Arthur Donnithorne deep within the enchanting woods. The artist, William Small, skillfully captures the essence of this pivotal moment in English literature. Hetty Sorrel, beautifully depicted with an air of innocence and vulnerability, holds her child close to her heart as she comes face-to-face with Arthur Donnithorne. Little do they know that their meeting will set off a chain of events that will forever alter their lives. Tragically, Hetty's love for Adam Bede is overshadowed by her ill-fated affair with Arthur. As fate would have it, Hetty finds herself convicted of infanticide and condemned to death. However, through the intervention of Arthur Donnithorne himself, the death sentence is mercifully commuted to transportation. This poignant scene serves as a powerful reminder of the consequences that can arise from forbidden love and impulsive actions. It encapsulates themes such as societal expectations, moral dilemmas, and redemption prevalent throughout George Eliot's work. As we gaze upon this evocative print by William Small from an edition published around 1885, we are transported back in time to witness a crucial turning point in these characters' lives—a moment where destiny intertwines two souls forever changed by their choices amidst nature's serene backdrop.
