EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Still sitting with Captain Tilney, 1907" takes us back to the enchanting world of Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey. Created by Charles Edmund Brock in 1907, this exquisite print is a part of a private collection and showcases the artist's remarkable talent. The scene depicted in this illustration comes from Chapter 18 of Northanger Abbey and captures Isabella Thorpe and Frederick Tilney engaged in an animated conversation within the elegant Pump-room at Bath. The watercolor technique used by Brock adds depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing these beloved characters to life. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to Georgian society during the 19th century. The couple's body language suggests flirtation and intrigue as they enjoy each other's company amidst their social surroundings. This portrayal perfectly encapsulates the essence of regency-era literature that Jane Austen so masterfully crafted. With its attention to detail and historical accuracy, this print serves as both a visual delight for art enthusiasts and a nostalgic reminder for fans of Austen's timeless works. It is no wonder that J. M. Dent & Sons chose sixteen plates from Brock's original series for their 1922 edition of Northanger Abbey. "Still sitting with Captain Tilney, 1907" is not just an illustration; it is a window into another era—a glimpse into English society through the eyes of one of its most celebrated authors.
