1809 Frederica Henrietta Langham Vane Elizabeth
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this elegant and poised portrait, Henrietta Elizabeth Frederica, Lady Langham (nee Vane), is depicted in all her grace and beauty. Born in the late 18th century, Henrietta was the daughter of the Honorable Henry Vane and his wife, Lady Elizabeth Bruce. She was the eldest of their five children and was raised in the aristocratic circles of Georgian England. Henrietta's marriage to Sir William Langham, a prominent figure in British politics, took place in the early 19th century. Sir William was a Member of Parliament and a Privy Counsellor, and the couple's union was a significant social event. In this portrait, Henrietta is shown wearing a fashionable gown of the time, with a high waistline, puffed sleeves, and a low-cut neckline. Her hair is styled in an intricate updo, adorned with pearls and feathers. Her expression is serene and confident, reflecting the refined sensibility of the era. Tragically, Henrietta's life was cut short when she passed away in 1809, at the young age of 38. The cause of her death is not recorded in history, leaving a lingering sense of mystery around her life and legacy. Despite her untimely demise, Henrietta's memory continues to be celebrated in the annals of British history. This portrait, a testament to her beauty and elegance, serves as a reminder of the grace and poise of the Georgian era and the women who shaped it. The provenance of this portrait is not definitively known, but it is believed to have been created around the time of Henrietta's marriage to Sir William Langham. It is a valuable addition to any collection of historical portraits and a testament to the enduring allure of the past.
