This is how I would imagine Edward Fairfax Rochester’s horse to be, showy and brooding. The stormy sky is evocative of the intense drama and emotional charge that unfolds in the story of Jane Eyre. This whole image was inspired by two artists and their work. John Frederick Herring Sr, “Chestnut Arab in Stormy Landscape”. Gustave Dore`, “Uther Discovers the Two Brothers”.
