Description
-
Here Mr. Rochester holds Jane’s veil before their wedding. This scene occurs when the truth about Mr. Rochester’s marriage came out. Mr. Rochester was married to a woman who suffered from severe mental illness, and so he confined her to the top floor of Thornfield. When Jane arrived, she was not told about Mr. Rochester’s wife, but she started walking through the halls at night, coming into Jane’s room the night before her wedding. Mr. Rochester’s brother-in-law confronted him about his marriage, seen here.
