EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "They Were Married" by Walter Besant and James Rice, transports us to a world of romance and literary allure. The image depicts a scene from the renowned novel, beautifully brought to life by the talented illustrator Loye Charles Auguste. In this enchanting print, we find ourselves in France, where sunlight filters through the leaves of towering trees. A trunk lies open nearby as if holding secrets waiting to be discovered. As we gaze upon this idyllic setting, our eyes are drawn to a couple standing amidst fallen leaves. Their figures appear ethereal against the flickering light that dances around them. The stream beside them seems almost alive with its sparkling waters reflecting their love story. It is as though nature itself bears witness to their union, creating an atmosphere filled with magic and serenity. Besant and Rice's words come alive through Loye's masterful interpretation of their characters' emotions and surroundings. This illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News in 1882 during its Holiday Number edition. As we admire this exquisite piece of art from Bridgeman Images' collection, it reminds us of the power that literature holds - transporting us into worlds unknown yet deeply familiar.
