Precedence at Bonnebouche Hall during the Holidays

Precedence at Bonnebouche Hall during the Holidays by George du Maurier. Scanned image and text by George P. Landow [This image may be used without prior permission for any scholarly or educational purpose.]

Commentary: Another of du Maurier's depictions of high society, it makes an interesting contrast to Leech's much earlier image of an ideal Dickensian christmas.
