What does this opening illustration suggest about the events that will take place in this story? How does this image fit into the Dark Romantics/Gothic writing genre

This question is incomplete. I will attach the illustration on this answer.

Explanation:

  The Gothic novel is a literary genre that comes from folklore and developed from the 18th century on. Currently it has characteristics associated with another genre such as Romanticism, where emotions, feelings and imagination are very important.

But Gothic literature is always darker than the romance novels of the same period.

The Gothic novel has its own characteristics, which differentiate it from other styles such as modern horror:

The general impression of the Gothic world is decay. A dying rich family. A community, country or individual that has succeeded and is now beginning a slow process of decline. It also appears in the landscape, as decrepit buildings on the edge of the ruins as in the characters themselves. Ghosts and unexplained manifestations often appear. Sometimes these apparitions have a rational explanation, but their implication always suggests that there is something that is not of this world. Scared ladies often appear. They can also suffer some kind of disease. Women are portrayed as innocent or seductive. Ominous effects precede dark situations. Unfortunate omens, ancient curses. Dark forces beyond the hero's control frustrate his ambitions. Murders, kidnappings, insanity and tragic illnesses are often the main part of the plot. Another recurring theme is incarceration and isolation. The story contains many intense emotions. As in romantic literature. The characters are generally passionate and strong-willed, challenging others and even themselves and their own common sense to achieve their goals. Men are tormented and enraged, reflecting their invisible torments. Many times isolated or alone. Isolation can come in different forms (physical or emotional). It can be self-imposed or as a result of circumstances beyond your control. Sometimes there is an impressionable heroine whose innocence is broken. This type of literature has an atmosphere of mystery and terror. The plot often contains secrets that threaten the protagonist. Many times it has to do with something supernatural. It focuses on the morbid and grotesque. The world of dreams and nightmares is also important to show the feelings of the protagonists. Also alternate between reality and dreams.

As we can see, this characteristics fit perfectly with the image.
