Corsage Decollete Demure Regency
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Maria Jane Jewsbury, an esteemed English authoress of the 19th century. Engraved by J. Cochran from The National Portrait Gallery, this image captures Jewsbury in a moment of quiet contemplation. Seated gracefully with her corsage delicately pinned, she holds a book in her hands, symbolizing her profound literary contributions to society. Her half-length portrait exudes an air of elegance and intelligence that was characteristic of the Regency era. Jewsbury's demure expression reflects both her modesty and determination as a female author during a time when women's voices were often silenced or overlooked. Despite these challenges, she fearlessly pursued her passion for writing and left behind a remarkable legacy. The lithograph itself is beautifully crafted by G. Freeman, showcasing his artistic skill in capturing every intricate detail of Jewsbury's likeness. This particular print is part of Volume III from The National Portrait Gallery published around 1820. Preserved within a private collection today, this historical artifact serves as a testament to the enduring influence and significance of Maria Jane Jewsbury's work. It reminds us not only of her literary prowess but also highlights the struggles faced by women writers throughout history who defied societal norms to make their mark on literature.
