The Chaplain of the Fleet - A Glimpse into Domestic Scenes and Furry Companions
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Chaplain of the Fleet" takes us back to a bygone era in 19th-century Europe. The engraving, created by Charles Green after an original work by James Rice, offers a delightful glimpse into domestic scenes filled with warmth and charm. In this enchanting illustration for The Graphic from December 1880, we find ourselves in Menton, a picturesque town on the Provence and Riviera coast of France. The chaplain sits comfortably in his study, surrounded by literary illustrations that reflect his refined taste. His loyal canine companions are never far away; one rests contentedly at his feet while another leans affectionately against him. The chaplain's serene expression suggests a moment of respite from his duties within the fleet. With chin resting thoughtfully upon whipstock (a symbol of authority), he exudes wisdom and compassion—a guiding light for those under his care. Walter Besant's evocative words come to life through this image as it transports us to the idyllic landscapes of southern France. From its tranquil ambiance to its endearing portrayal of pets as cherished family members, this engraving captures both beauty and tenderness. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us appreciate not only its artistic merit but also the timeless bond between humans and their beloved animal companions—reminding us
