Clearly! In the second pic, the collar of his coat looks Victorian-appropriate.
Mr. Schetcher is desperate to find a governess (a boy governess, whatever, it's a silly steampunk victorian world) for his youngest pupil, Mr. Iero, who's small and sickly but tends to scare away all his prospective teachers by hiding their belongings and/or making them explode and talking ALL the time. He's so desperate than when one of his acquaintances suggests Mr. Way, he immediately agrees and sends for him without even knowing anything about him (Frank's getting on his nerves and those shoes were new).
Two weeks later a carriage arrives and two figures step down, one wearing a long dark coat, a grey bonnet and round glasses and the other in full Romantic poet attire, tight breeches, long, flowy shirt (black) and uncombed hair.
