EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white wood engraving, we witness a significant moment in the life of Hannah More, an influential English religious writer and playwright. The image portrays her introduction to high society by none other than the Duchess of Gloucester, marking her entrance into a world dominated by privilege and power. Hannah More's presence in this portrait symbolizes not only her personal achievements but also represents the intellectual prowess of women during the 19th century. As a member of the Blue Stocking circle, she was part of a network of intelligent and educated women who challenged societal norms and contributed significantly to literature and philosophy. This print captures both the essence of Hannah More's occupation as a writer and playwright, as well as her deep religious convictions. It serves as a metaphor for how she used her words to bridge gaps between different social classes while staying true to her faith. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this nineteenth-century portrait, emphasizing both elegance and timelessness. Created by an unknown artist but preserved through Ann Ronan Pictures' collection, this print showcases Hannah More's enduring legacy as an author whose work continues to inspire generations even today.
