EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, a remarkable woman of the 18th century. Painted by renowned artist Godfrey Kneller, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures her essence and elegance. Standing in a half-length pose, Lady Montagu exudes confidence and intelligence. Lady Mary Wortley Montagu was not only an English aristocrat but also a writer, poet, essayist, feminist, and author. She was known for her vibrant travel writing in the form of letters, particularly those from Turkey where she had spent time. Her experiences there inspired her to introduce inoculation against smallpox in England after witnessing its success in Turkish society. The painting portrays Lady Montagu dressed in Turkish costume - a nod to her fascination with Orientalism during the Georgian era. The unfinished nature of the artwork adds an intriguing touch to this already enigmatic figure. This print is housed at the Yale Center for British Art as part of the Paul Mellon Collection. It serves as a testament to Lady Mary Wortley Montagu's enduring legacy and contribution to literature and public health.
