Description: Here we see Jane Eyre, Mr. Rochester, and Adele out for a drive in their carriage. The carriage has an open top. In the distance we see Thornfield, as they drive along the road to go to Millcote, the town near Mr. Rochester’s estate. Tall trees from the Thornfield orchard line the road.
