EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in 1906, captures the picturesque scene of Corfe Castle in Wessex, England, which served as the setting for several scenes in Thomas Hardy's novel "The Hand of Ethelberta." The West Street, with its quaint cottages and cobblestones, leads the eye to the imposing ruins of Corfe Castle, standing proudly on a hill in the distance. The tranquility of the scene is contrasted by the presence of a flock of sheep grazing in the foreground, adding a touch of rural charm and authenticity. The sun casts a warm glow over the landscape, illuminating the rolling hills and the ancient castle walls. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the characters of Hardy's novel roaming the streets and fields of this idyllic English village. The photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty of Wessex and the timeless appeal of Hardy's literature.
