EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Hester Thrale Piozzi, a remarkable figure in 18th-century English life. The image, taken in 1830 by an unknown creator, captures the essence of this Welsh-born diarist, author, and patron of the arts. Hester Thrale's diaries provide invaluable insights into the era and shed light on her close relationship with Samuel Johnson, the renowned writer and lexicographer. Born Hester Lynch Salusbury, she married brewer Henry Thrale at a young age and together they had twelve children. After Henry's death, she remarried Gabriel Mario Piozzi in 1784. In this portrait from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard published in 1830, Hester exudes elegance with her intricate hairdo and stylish attire. Her gaze is directed away from the camera as if lost in deep contemplation or perhaps reflecting on her eventful life. Hester Thrale Piozzi's contribution to literature and art cannot be overstated. As a patron of the arts, she supported numerous artists during her time while also leaving behind a rich literary legacy through her writings. This print serves as a poignant reminder of Hester Thrale Piozzi's significant role in shaping both British history and culture during the late 18th century. It offers us a glimpse into one woman's extraordinary journey through life—a journey filled with love, loss, intellectual pursuits, and unwavering dedication to artistic endeavors.
