"The Wine-Shop" (p. 16) by Fred Barnard. 1870s. 9.4 x 13.8 cm. (framed). The picture of Gaspard, Madame de Farge, and her publican husband, Earnest, at the bar in their St. Antoine wine-shop establishes the context for the imminent arrival of Lucie Manette and Mr. Jarvis Lorry of Tellson's Bank, and more significantly the social and economic contexts in which the French Revolution will erupt in Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities, Book 1, chap. v, "The Wine-Shop," originally in the third weekly part (14 May 1859) in All the Year Round, and then in the June 1859 illustrated monthly number.
