An Office


Type: Gallery Image | Not Vetted



This photo, while not directly linked to Great Expectations, shows a room that Mr. Jaggers would likely have had. The dark colours and bookshelves filled with books are something that a wealthy, working man would have had for an office. Things such as a rug and cushionsed chairs are things that reader already know Mr. Jaggers has a penchant for, and they show that he is of a higher class.
