EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing print captures the enigmatic figure of the Wonderful Miss Atkinson, known for her unique pig-like facial features. Born in Ireland and possessing a staggering fortune of £20,000, she was an eccentric character who fascinated both society and artists alike. The image is based on a drawing by George Morland and was published as an engraving in London in 1815. In this studio shot, Miss Atkinson stands proudly wearing a period costume adorned with fur accents. Her side profile showcases the intricacy of her animalistic features, with a pig's head seamlessly merging into her human body. Looking away from the viewer, she exudes an air of mystery and allure. The image not only offers a glimpse into British culture during that time but also sparks ideas about societal perceptions towards physical abnormalities and wealth. The illustration technique employed by Morland adds to its historical significance, capturing the essence of the past through Western script. This print serves as a reminder of our fascination with peculiarities and challenges conventional notions of beauty. It invites us to reflect on how society has evolved in its acceptance and understanding of individuals who deviate from traditional norms.
