EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: This print showcases a portrait of Nancy Woodforde, captured by her cousin Samuel Woodforde in the late 18th to early 19th century. The subject of this exquisite drawing is none other than Anna Maria Woodforde, an English diarist renowned for her role as housekeeper to her uncle, James Woodforde. James was not only an esteemed clergyman but also the author of "The Diary of a Country Parson". With delicate strokes and intricate detailing, Samuel skillfully brings Anna Maria's image to life on paper. Her vibrant personality shines through in every line and shade, making it evident why she played such a significant role in the lives of those around her. Anna Maria's striking features are beautifully accentuated with her richly colored hair styled elegantly for the era. This portrayal transports us back to 18th-century England, allowing us to glimpse into the past and witness firsthand the social history that unfolded during that time. Preserved within Kate O'Brien's remarkable book "English Diaries and Journals", published by Collins in London in 1943, this print serves as a testament to both Anna Maria's legacy and Samuel Woodforde's artistic prowess. As we gaze upon this enchanting artwork today, we can appreciate its historical significance while marveling at how art has always been instrumental in capturing moments from our past.
