  How nicely we are crammed in!

  In this image Elizabeth, Jane, and Mrs. Gardiner were met by Kitty and Lydia in Mr. Bennet’s carriage. Elizabeth travelled from Rosings to London where she met with Jane. They then travelled home to Longbourn together. On their way they were met by Mr. Bennet’s carriage and the group finished their journey tightly packed into his carriage. This scene occurs in chapter 39. The characters are shown in the traditional regency style. They wear the regency style with dresses with empire waistlines and bonnets. Jane and Elizabeth hold hat boxes and Mrs. Gardiner holds a basket. The regency period dated to the early nineteenth century (1811-1820) when George, Prince of Wales, later George IV (r. 1820-1830), reigned as regent for his mentally ill father, King George III (r. 1760-1820). The regency period is associated with the rise of neoclassicism in art and fashion.

  Julia gay Cesaris filia

  This engraving depicts two separate events. The left side of the engraving depicts Pompey the Great participating in a sacrifice of an animal. Pompey is depicted wearing a crown to signify his high status. The man to the right of Pompey is depicted cutting the neck of the animal that he is holding. There is blood splashing out from the animals wound, which stains Pompey’s clothing. Boccaccio explains that after Pompey’s garments became stained with the animal’s blood, a servant carried his stained clothes back home to get new ones. Julia, Pompey’s wife and the daughter of Julius Caesar, saw the blood-stained clothing of her husband and immediately thought that he had been murdered. Julia is depicted on the right side of the engraving after having just seen the clothing of her husband. She looks distraught and is depicted mid-fall to the ground. There is a servant beside her who is holding the blood-stained garments of her husband.

  [Act XV]

  In the centre of the illustration, we see a female figure wearing a robe and a veil. There are two male figures to the left and one to the right. Because there are two female characters (Elicia and Areusa) and one male character (Centurio) in Act XV, we can say that this illustration does not relate to the events contained within the act.[This illustration is identical to those found in Acts IV (folio 32r), V (folio 42r), VI (folio 45r), VIII (folio 62r), X (folio 74r), XIII (folio 93v), and XVII (folio 109r).]
