1811 Austen Dashwood Marianne Raising Sense Sensibility
EDITORS COMMENTS
Marianne Dashwood, the fiery and passionate heroine of Jane Austen's beloved novel "Sense and Sensibility," is depicted in this beautiful 19th century illustration as she blushes, lost in thought. Dashwood, portrayed here with a delicate and expressive countenance, is known for her strong emotions and her deep sensibility, which often leads her to experience intense feelings of love and heartache. First published in 1811, "Sense and Sensibility" is a classic novel of manners that follows the fortunes of the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne, after their father's death leaves them without a fortune and without a home. Marianne, the younger sister, is particularly vulnerable to the whims of her emotions, and her romantic entanglements form the heart of the story. In this illustration, Marianne is shown with an open book in her lap, a symbol of her love for literature and her intellectual pursuits. Her blush, a sign of her embarrassment or shame, could be the result of a number of situations in the novel, from her rejection by the dashing Willoughby to her eventual realization of the true nature of her feelings for Colonel Brandon. This evocative image captures the essence of Marianne Dashwood's complex and compelling character, and serves as a reminder of the enduring power of Austen's writing to captivate and inspire readers. Whether you are a devoted fan of "Sense and Sensibility" or a newcomer to Austen's work, this print is sure to be a cherished addition to any collection of literary art.
