EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative late Victorian portrait, we meet Mrs. Whittington, a striking and elegant figure from Stopham House in West Sussex during the turn of the twentieth century. The photograph, taken around 1876 to 1908, is part of the Walter Kevis Collection held at the West Sussex Record Office (Ref. No: Kevis 1/W380). Mrs. Whittington's gaze is fixed on the viewer with a quiet intensity, her expressive eyes reflecting a depth of character and wisdom. Her fashionably styled hair is neatly arranged, and a delicate lace collar frames her elegant neck. The richly textured fabric of her dress, adorned with intricate floral patterns, adds to the overall sense of opulence and refinement. The portrait offers a glimpse into the lives of the gentry class during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, a time of great social change and cultural evolution. The intricately decorated background of Stopham House, with its ornate fireplace and grand furnishings, further emphasizes the wealth and status of the Whittington family. Despite the passage of time, this photograph continues to captivate and inspire, offering a window into the past and a reminder of the rich history and heritage of West Sussex. The Walter Kevis Collection, housed at the West Sussex Record Office, is a treasure trove of such historical gems, providing invaluable insights into the lives and stories of the people and places of West Sussex.
