EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of Anne Holt, a woman who lived during the 18th century. The original oil painting was skillfully executed by an unknown English artist, capturing Anne's essence in stunning detail. Anne Holt, born in 1693 and passing away in 1739, is best known as the mother of Gilbert White, a renowned naturalist whose contributions to science are still celebrated today. This portrait was painted around the time of her marriage to John White in what can be assumed as a joyous period of her life. The photograph reveals Anne Holt's elegant presence through its three-quarter length composition. Her expression exudes grace and poise, while her attire reflects the fashion trends of that era. It is fascinating to imagine how this portrait must have been cherished by her family for generations. Anne Holt found eternal rest at Selborne Church where she was buried in its chancel. This information adds depth to our understanding of this remarkable woman captured on canvas centuries ago. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts to preserve fine art masterpieces like this one, we can now appreciate and admire Anne Holt's beauty and legacy even from afar.
