EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting steel engraving, created by J. Thomson after an original illustration by Alfred Edward Chalon, captures the innocence and charm of three young sisters: Emily Blanche Charlotte, Rose Caroline, and Emily Catherine Anne Somerset. The daughters of Henry Somerset, 7th Duke of Beaufort, are depicted in their elegant satin dresses adorned with ribbons and lace, complemented by their ballet shoes and ringlets. The eldest sister, Emily Blanche Charlotte, wears a bonnet with a bow, while her younger sisters, Rose Caroline and Emily Catherine Anne, don petite bonnets with flowers. The portrait evokes the Victorian era's aristocratic elegance and the sisters' playful nature. The setting of the portrait is a bower, a secluded and ornate garden arbor, where the girls sit on a bench with a pet squirrel. The sisters' attire and the idyllic scene suggest a sense of leisure and privilege, reflecting the lifestyle of the aristocracy during this period. The portrait was published in Charles Heath's Portraits of the Children of the Nobility in 1838. The illustration's intricate details and lifelike portrayal of the sisters are a testament to Chalon's artistic skill and the high-quality craftsmanship of the steel engraving by Thomson.
