EDITORS COMMENTS
In this scene from William Makepeace Thackeray's classic novel "Vanity Fair," the young and witty Becky Sharp (played by Olivia Williams) turns down a proposal from the older and wealthy Sir Pitt Crawley (played by Timothy West). The photograph, published in 1848, captures the moment of decision that sets the course for the rest of Becky's tumultuous journey through the social circles of 19th century England. Sir Pitt, with his stern expression and outstretched hand, is a stark contrast to the vibrant and determined Becky. Her sharp gaze and resolute posture convey her unwillingness to be tied down by the confines of marriage to an older man, especially when she has her sights set on higher social and financial aspirations. The background of the photograph is adorned with ornate furnishings and grand decor, reflecting the opulence and extravagance of the Crawley estate. The intricate details of the room, from the patterned wallpaper to the gilded mirrors, add to the sense of grandeur and importance of the moment. Thackeray's "Vanity Fair," first published in serial form between 1847 and 1848, is a biting satire of English society and its obsession with wealth, status, and appearances. The novel follows Becky Sharp as she navigates the treacherous waters of love, marriage, and social climbing, using her wit and cunning to outmaneuver her opponents and secure her place in the world. This photograph, with its intricate details and evocative scene, offers a glimpse into the world of "Vanity Fair" and the complex relationships that drive the novel's narrative. The moment of Becky's refusal of Sir Pitt's proposal is a pivotal one, setting the stage for the twists and turns that lie ahead in this timeless tale of love, ambition, and the human condition.
