Painted in 1877, this masterpiece is part of a series of Shakespearean heroines created for The Graphic newspaper, showcasing the exceptional artistic talent of the time. Jessica, portrayed here with an enchanting smile and a thoughtful expression, is the eldest daughter of Shylock, the Jewish moneylender, and the object of affection for the Christian Lorenzo.
