EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Georgiana Romilly (nee Russell), Lady Romilly (1820-1867): A Victorian Lady of Substance and Style" Georgiana Romilly, born as Georgiana Elizabeth Russell, was a prominent figure in Victorian society, known for her beauty, intellect, and charitable works. This portrait captures the essence of this extraordinary woman, who was the wife of Charles Romilly, a prominent barrister and Member of Parliament. The photograph, taken around 1867, shows Georgiana in her maturity, exuding an aura of grace and sophistication. Her elegant attire, with its high collar and intricate lace detailing, is a testament to the fashion trends of the time. Her piercing gaze and poised demeanor suggest a strong and independent spirit, which was reflected in her active involvement in various philanthropic endeavors. Georgiana was the eldest daughter of the 6th Duke of Bedford and Lady Elizabeth Sackville. She married Charles Romilly in 1848, and the couple had five children together. Georgiana was not only a devoted wife and mother but also an accomplished woman in her own right. She was known for her literary pursuits and was a patron of the arts, supporting various cultural institutions and artists. In addition to her love for the arts, Georgiana was deeply committed to charitable work. She was a founding member of the Ladies' Association for the Care of Friendless Girls, which provided shelter and education to destitute young women. Her dedication to this cause was a reflection of her compassionate nature and her belief in the importance of helping those in need. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of Georgiana Romilly's significant contributions to Victorian society and her enduring legacy as a woman of substance and style.
