Tess of the D'Urbervilles
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a novel by Thomas Hardy, published in 1891, which tells the tragic story of Tess Durbeyfield and her ill-fated marriage to Alec D'Urberville. In this poignant scene from the novel, Tess and her husband Angel Clare have returned to the monastery where Tess's family once lived. They reach the cloister-garth, where the graves of the monks are located. In the photograph by Sir Hubert von Herkomer, published in "The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper" in 1891, we see a somber and emotional moment as Angel carefully lays Tess down on one of the graves. The black and white image captures the essence of the novel's themes of love, marriage, and the consequences of past mistakes. The image also reflects the Victorian era's fascination with Gothic literature and the supernatural, as the monastery and its graveyard evoke a sense of mystery and the unknown. The image is a testament to the power of literature to transport us to another time and place, and to evoke strong emotions through the use of imagery and storytelling. The photograph is a beautiful and haunting reminder of the enduring power of Thomas Hardy's classic novel.
