EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia-toned photograph captures the timeless beauty of Mary MacDonald, taken on the 10th of October in 1863. The image, captured by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (better known as Lewis Carroll), showcases a young girl seated gracefully on a chair. Her delicate features and composed posture reflect the elegance of Victorian-era portraiture. Mary MacDonald was not just any ordinary child; she was the daughter of George MacDonald, a renowned Scottish novelist and poet. This photograph holds historical significance as it immortalizes her youth and innocence for generations to come. Intriguingly, this print also bears an autograph from Mary herself—a unique addition that adds depth to its value. It is said that she married Arthur Hughes's nephew but tragically succumbed to consumption at a tender age. Preserved within a private collection, this portrait offers us a glimpse into both personal history and artistic mastery. Its black-and-white composition evokes nostalgia while emphasizing the timelessness of Mary's enchanting presence. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Stapleton Collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also the stories it silently tells—of love, loss, and fleeting moments frozen in time.
