EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Moment of Intimacy: Harriette Wilson at Home with Miss Hawess and Will Halliday Harriette Wilson (1786-1856), a noted courtesan and autobiographer, is depicted in this evocative image, captured in the quiet intimacy of her home. The photograph, taken in 1846, reveals a more personal side of Wilson, who was known for her scandalous exploits and literary accomplishments. Wilson's home was a place of refuge and respite from the bustling streets of London. In this image, she is seen in the company of two cherished companions: Miss Hawess and Will Halliday. Miss Hawess, a loyal friend and confidante, is believed to have been Wilson's maid and companion for many years. Will Halliday, on the other hand, was a renowned actor and a frequent visitor to Wilson's home. The trio appears to be engaged in a lighthearted moment, with Wilson playfully teasing Halliday as he holds a book upside down, while Miss Hawess looks on with amusement. The warmth and camaraderie between the three are palpable, offering a glimpse into the private world of this intriguing historical figure. Harriette Wilson's memoirs, "The Memoirs of Harriette Wilson," published in 1825, caused a sensation due to her candid revelations about her life as a courtesan. Her story was a testament to her intelligence, wit, and resilience, and her ability to turn her experiences into a lucrative literary endeavor. This photograph, a rare glimpse into the personal life of a woman who defied societal norms, serves as a reminder of Wilson's complex and multifaceted legacy. It invites us to reconsider her place in history as more than just a courtesan, but as a woman who lived her life on her own terms.
