EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print, titled "I don't know about ghosts, 'she was saying'", is a scene from Thomas Hardy's novel "Tess of the D'Urbervilles", published in 1891. The image was created by renowned German-British artist Hubert von Herkomer for "The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper". The scene depicts a pensive Tess, played by a woman with a thoughtful expression, seated at a rustic table in a rural setting. She is engrossed in conversation with a man, who appears to be a professor or scholar, as suggested by his attire and the books and papers scattered around the table. The scene exudes a sense of quiet introspection and contemplation, with the simple furniture and the dimly lit room adding to the mood. The print is a beautiful representation of the Victorian era and the rural life of Wessex, a region in England that was a frequent setting for Hardy's works. The use of black and white enhances the sense of nostalgia and timelessness, making it a captivating piece of art and literature history.
