In this vintage engraving from 1891, we are transported back to the Victorian era and immersed in the world of Thomas Hardy's renowned novel, "Tess of the d'Urbervilles". The print showcases an illustrative technique that beautifully captures a pivotal moment in the story. The image depicts two women engaged in conversation, their expressions filled with curiosity and concern. One woman, Marian, leans forward slightly as she poses a question to her companion. The caption reveals her inquiry: "You be going to marry him?". This simple yet loaded query encapsulates the essence of Tess's predicament and sets the stage for dramatic events to unfold. The engraved image is meticulously crafted, showcasing intricate details that bring life to each character. The retro styling adds a touch of nostalgia, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistic skill but also its historical significance.
