Jane Austen herself comes alive through a delicate watercolor portrait, capturing her essence as she penned these beloved stories.

Sense and Sensibility introduces us to an endearing gardener who adds depth to Austen's narrative tapestry. The majestic His Majesty's Ship Victory takes center stage in colored engravings – a symbol of Britain's naval prowess during this period. Tender flirtations dance across illustrated pages from Pride & Prejudice; each stroke revealing the intricate courtship rituals that defined society then. Gaze upon Chepstow's Old Wye Bridge spanning over the River Wye – an idyllic setting for stolen glances and shared confidences.
