EDITORS COMMENTS
This gelatin silver photo captures the renowned poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox at Sound Beach, Conn, sometime between 1905 and 1911. The image, taken by Jessie Tarbox Beals, showcases Wilcox in all her elegance and poise. She is adorned with a large hat embellished with feathers and a delicate veil that adds an air of mystery to her presence. Wilcox tenderly cradles a cat against her chest, showcasing not only her love for feline companions but also symbolizing the nurturing nature of this remarkable woman. Positioned next to a short stone wall on the edge of a cliff overlooking the water, she exudes both strength and vulnerability simultaneously. The photograph beautifully encapsulates Wilcox's connection with nature as well as her deep introspection. Her gaze seems fixed on something beyond what meets the eye; perhaps she is contemplating life's mysteries or drawing inspiration for her poetic endeavors. As one of America's most celebrated women poets and authors during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Ella Wheeler Wilcox left an indelible mark on literature through her profound verses exploring themes such as love, spirituality, and personal growth. This print serves as a timeless tribute to both Wilcox's literary legacy and her enigmatic persona captured in this moment frozen in time.
