It is a question that eludes our understanding and remains an enigma. Through this artwork, Furniss skillfully brings to life the complex dynamics between these sisters and their quest for love. We are left wondering about the feelings that drive them and how they managed to convince themselves that it was possible for a man to marry only one of them without marrying all.
