EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph showcases the esteemed American author, Sarah Orne Jewett, in a thought-provoking portrait captured around 1890. With her piercing gaze and poised demeanor, Jewett exudes an air of intellect and creativity that defined her literary career. Known for her renowned novel "The Country of Pointed Firs". Jewett's contributions to literature were both influential and groundbreaking. As one of the foremost female writers of her time, she shattered societal norms with her powerful storytelling and unique perspective on life in New England. Seated elegantly in this print, Jewett emanates strength and resilience. Her presence is a testament to the indomitable spirit of women who dared to challenge conventions during an era when their voices often went unheard. Beyond being celebrated for her literary achievements, it is worth noting that Jewett was also known as a lesbian writer—a facet of her identity that adds depth to our understanding of her work. This lithograph serves as a visual reminder not only of Jewett's talent but also the complexities inherent in exploring themes such as love and identity within one's writing. Preserved by the Schlesinger Library at Harvard University, this image offers us a glimpse into the world inhabited by this remarkable woman. It serves as a timeless tribute to Sarah Orne Jewett's enduring legacy as an accomplished novelist, feminist trailblazer, and advocate for diverse voices in literature.
