"Captivating Ringlets: A Glimpse into Victorian Elegance" Step back in time with these enchanting portraits capturing the beauty of ringlets, a timeless hairstyle that adorned women throughout history. In "Portrait of Hannah Rowett, Polperro, Cornwall. Around 1860, " we witness the delicate curls framing Hannah's face, adding an air of grace to her countenance. Miss Elizabeth Hoare (later Mrs J. Rawson Walker) exudes sophistication in her portrait as her cascading ringlets cascade down her shoulders, epitomizing the elegance of the era. Meanwhile, "Portrait of Daisy Grant, the Artists Daughter" showcases how even young girls embraced this fashionable trend. Not limited to women alone, Sarah Childress Polk proudly displays her meticulously styled ringlets as she stands beside President Polk in their official portrait. The Princes Oscar, Joachim and Viktor of Prussia also sported dashing ringlet hairstyles that complemented their regal attire. Magdalen Aston, Lady Burdett - John Michael Wright's masterpiece captures not only Lady Burdett's striking features but also highlights her exquisite ringleted hairdo – a symbol of high society during this period. Evening full dress in 1807 wouldn't be complete without elaborate hairstyles featuring intricate curls and mesmerizing ringlets that added allure to every woman who wore them. The music sheet cover for "Queen of May Quadrille" further celebrates this captivating style with its depiction of elegant ladies donning stunning ringleted coiffures while dancing merrily. Christine Nilsson graces us with her presence through a CDV photograph where we can admire how perfectly formed and flawlessly arranged each individual curl is—a testament to both fashion and artistry during this era. The Victorian woman from the Polhill-Turner family exemplifies how everyday women embraced this trend across social classes—they were not just for the elite but a symbol of femininity and beauty accessible to all.
