EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print depicts Kitty Maxse, née Lushington (1882-1954), a model and historical figure believed to have inspired the character of Mrs. Dalloway in Virginia Woolf's renowned novel of the same name. Kitty was the wife of Leopold Maxse, a prominent figure in British politics and journalism during the early 20th century. The image, captured in 1922, showcases Kitty's elegant and timeless beauty, with her expressive eyes and delicate features framed by an intricate lace veil. The ivy-covered archway in the background adds an air of mystery and allure, transporting us back in time to a bygone era. Kitty Maxse, born Katharine Lushington, was a fascinating character in her own right. She was known for her intelligence, wit, and charm, and was a regular fixture in the salons and social circles of London's literary and artistic elite. Her marriage to Leopold Maxse, who was over thirty years her senior, was a subject of much gossip and intrigue at the time. Despite the rumors and speculation, Kitty and Leopold's relationship was reportedly strong and loving. They were known for their lavish parties and entertaining guests, including many of the most influential figures of the day. Virginia Woolf, who was a contemporary of Kitty Maxse, drew inspiration from her for the character of Clarissa Dalloway in her groundbreaking novel, published in 1925. The similarities between the two women are striking, from their social status and beauty to their introspective natures and deep connections to their communities. This evocative sepia print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time of elegance, intrigue, and artistic innovation. It serves as a reminder of the rich and complex lives that lie behind the pages of history and literature.
