1869 Alcott Good Professor Watches Wives
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, first published in 1869, is a poignant moment from Louisa May Alcott's beloved novel "Good Wives," depicting Professor Blaer (played by actor George Gordon Cos Coburn in the 1973 television adaptation) engrossed in a book as he watches over Jo March (played by Felicity binding in the same adaptation) and her children. The scene exudes a sense of tranquility and contentment, as Jo, the independent and fiery protagonist, has found happiness in her role as a wife and mother. With her children playing at her feet and her husband's supportive gaze, Jo's transformation from a young, ambitious woman to a loving wife and mother is beautifully captured. The professor's presence adds an intellectual and nurturing element to the scene, emphasizing the importance of education and knowledge in the lives of the March family. This timeless image, published over a century ago, continues to resonate with readers and viewers alike, reminding us of the enduring power of love, family, and the pursuit of knowledge.
