EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the title page of a rare edition of "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" by Thomas Hardy, published in 1892. The delicate details and intricate typography on this printed paper are truly mesmerizing. The title page proudly displays the full title of the novel: "Tess of the D'Urbervilles, a Pure Woman, faithfully presented by Thomas Hardy". It also credits James R. Osgood and McIlvaine as the publishers who brought this literary masterpiece to life. As we delve into Victorian literature, this image reminds us of the profound impact that books had on society during that era. The frontispiece is absent from this particular print but its absence only adds to its charm and mystery. This photograph transports us back in time, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an age when physical books were treasured possessions. It invites us to imagine holding this edition in our hands, feeling its weight and turning each page with anticipation. Preserved within a private collection today, this historical artifact serves as a testament to both Thomas Hardy's enduring legacy as one of England's greatest writers and to the timeless allure of classic literature itself.
