EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print, titled "Tess in Dairyman Dick's Yard," is a scene from Thomas Hardy's novel "Tess of the D'Urbervilles," published in 1891. The image was created by renowned German-British artist Hubert von Herkomer for The Graphic, an illustrated weekly newspaper. The scene depicts Tess, the novel's protagonist, standing in a farmyard surrounded by cows and a milking man, or dairyman, named Dick. Tess, dressed in a simple, rustic outfit, appears to be deep in thought, her gaze fixed on the horizon. The farm buildings and livestock in the background suggest the rural setting of Wessex, a region of southern England that was a common backdrop for Hardy's novels. The milking man, with his sturdy build and focused expression, embodies the hardworking, agricultural life of the time. The cows, with their large, dark eyes and patient demeanor, add to the idyllic, yet labor-intensive atmosphere of the scene. This print is a poignant representation of the agricultural life and the rural traditions that were an integral part of Victorian England.
