Purpose of use	Reviewers disagreed over the tone of Portia Rosenberg's illustrations. In order for readers to understand the aesthetic comments and comparisons made by the reviewers, at least one example of the illustrations needs to be present in the article, for the art cannot be conveyed by words alone: "Shadows fill the illustrations by Portia Rosenberg, as apt as Edward Gorey's for Dickens' 'Bleak House'."^[1] "The dozen of so full-page illustrations (by Portia Rosenberg, whose work I've not encountered previously) are quite astonishingly inappropriate in the context of Clarke's note-perfect creation of an idiom that rarely violates the timbre and tessitura of early 19th-century prose style, nor did Rosenberg seem to think it her brief even remotely to heed the references Clarke makes to artists like George Cruikshank and [Thomas Rowlandson], whose works are central examples of early 19th-century illustration, which is line-dominated, intricate, scabrous, cartoon-like, savage and funny. Rosenberg's work is simultaneously soft and wooden, as though she were imitating (without quite understanding) Edward Ardizzone on a bad Sunday, fatally Heritage Society, fatally National Trust tea service special offer, fatally and distancingly sentimental about a world Clarke clearly wants us to enter in our hearts and minds."^[2]
