EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled 'The Mayor of Casterbridge' by Robert Barnes, was first published in 1886 in 'The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper'. The image is a visual representation of a scene from Thomas Hardy's novel of the same name, which was first published two years prior. The Victorian-era setting is depicted in the quaint, rural English countryside, with a thatched-roof barn standing prominently in the background. At the center of the image, a surprised and somewhat taken aback man, dressed in the fashion of the time with a tall hat and a long, dark overcoat, is discovered in the doorway of the barn. A woman, also dressed in Victorian attire, stands nearby, her expression mirroring that of the man's. The unexpected nature of their encounter is palpable, adding to the intrigue of the scene. The title of the print refers to the novel's protagonist, Michael Henchard, who, after a night of drunkenness, sells his wife Susan to a sailor. He later returns to Casterbridge, where he builds a successful business and regains his position as mayor. However, his past transgressions come back to haunt him, leading to a dramatic and unexpected turn of events. Barnes' engraving masterfully captures the essence of Hardy's novel, with its intricate details and nuanced expressions. The print invites the viewer to delve deeper into the story, making it a must-have for any literature or history enthusiast, as well as for those with an appreciation for the arts and fashion of the 19th century.
