EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorized print showcases Mrs. Bryan, a portrait painted by Mackenzie in 1801. The subject of the painting is none other than Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, an extraordinary English novelist and literary figure. Renowned for her groundbreaking Gothic novel Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus, Shelley's immense talent spanned across various genres including short stories, dramas, essays, biographies, and travel writing. The original artwork was created by Samuel Shelley in the late 18th century and this particular print was published by Vernor & Hood in London in 1801. Through the process of colorization applied to the image, we are able to see Mrs. Bryan come to life with vibrant hues that accentuate her curly hair and direct gaze. As one of Britain's most influential female writers of the 19th century, Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley left an indelible mark on literature with her masterpiece Frankenstein. This print serves as a testament to her enduring legacy and artistic prowess. With its gothic undertones and rich historical context from the turn of the century, this portrait captures not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an era where women were making significant strides within their chosen professions. It stands as a powerful symbol of female empowerment within the arts during a period when such recognition was scarce.
