New Persuasion illustrations at Molland’s

Filed under: Online — Mags @ 8:26 am

The Letter We are pleased to announce that the Jane Austen novel illustrations archive at Molland’s now has illustrations by C.E. Brock for Persuasion from the 1898 Dent editions.

Scroll down to the section titled “Tinted Line Drawings by C.E. Brock.” Anne is so pretty and delicate–and Miss Elliot so very handsome and haughty! And a bit scary! ;-) (No doubt her flying monkeys were being tended to by the footmen outside the Assembly Rooms.) And, of course…The Letter.

Many thanks (as always) to Cinthia for scanning these!
