EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures the youthful beauty and elegance of Mary Isabella Bloxam, a beloved niece of renowned British painter Sir Thomas Lawrence. The image, skillfully rendered in crayon and hand-tinted, was originally created as a sketch by Sir Thomas Lawrence and later transformed into an engraving by the talented Frederick Christian Lewis. The portrait showcases Mary Isabella's striking features, with her cascading curls piled high and her off-the-shoulder dress revealing a hint of her delicate neckline. Mary Isabella Bloxam was born into a distinguished family, related to the powerful Lowther and Fane families, and later became the wife of the 1st Earl of Lonsdale. This portrait, published in P.G. Patmore's Cabinet of Gems in 1837 by Ackermann of London, offers a glimpse into the opulence and refinement of Victorian society. The intricate details of Mary Isabella's attire, the delicate shading of her features, and the subtle textures of her curls all serve to capture the essence of a young woman of high status and beauty during this period. The portrait's creation reflects the artistic collaboration between Sir Thomas Lawrence, a leading figure in British portraiture, and Frederick Christian Lewis, a skilled engraver. The resulting image is a testament to their combined artistic vision and serves as a stunning reminder of the beauty and elegance of Victorian society.
