| Summary | "The Yellow Book, An Illustrated Quarterly, Vol. 2, July 1894" by Henry Harland is an illustrated literary magazine first published in the late 19th century. This volume features various contributions from writers and artists, presenting a mix of literature and visual art reflective of the period, touching on themes such as society, politics, and personal relationships through essays, stories, and illustrations. The publication serves as a significant cultural artifact of its time, gathering notable contributors and discussing topics pertinent to late Victorian society. The opening portion of this volume begins with a piece entitled "The Gospel of Content" by Frederick Greenwood, where the narrator reluctantly embarks on an errand to deliver money to Madame Vernet, a destitute Russian woman living in London's King's Cross. The narrative paints a vivid picture of the grim setting and the emotional weight of the mission. Upon meeting Madame Vernet, the narrator observes her stoic suffering and the struggle of her family, culminating in a reunion with her husband, Monsieur Vernet, who has escaped political imprisonment. This poignant introduction sets the tone for the volume, blending personal crises with broader social themes, showcasing the intimate yet tumultuous human experiences shaped by the times they inhabit.
