George Eliot, Silhouette by Unknown Artist (1838-1848)
Created by Anne Nagel on Mon, 02/10/2020 - 23:25
Description:
This silhouette was created sometime between 1838 and 1848, when George Eliot would have been between 16 and 26 years old. An 1881 article in The Century suggests that she was 16 years old when the silhouette was cut, which would validate the 1838 date (Holland 1881, 48).
