EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting portrait captures Hester Thrale, a beloved friend of the renowned literary figure, Dr. Samuel Johnson, and the devoted wife of Henry Thrale, a successful brewer, in a moment of relaxed introspection. The image, created by the skilled hand of artist Joshua Reynolds in 1781, showcases Hester's captivating smile and the elegance of her attire, adorned with exquisite jewels. Born in 1741, Hester Thrale was an intellectual and social force in 18th-century London. Her friendship with Dr. Johnson, which began in 1765, was marked by mutual admiration and intellectual stimulation. Johnson, known for his wit and erudition, found in Hester a kindred spirit and a devoted companion. Their friendship was immortalized in Boswell's "Life of Johnson," which vividly records their conversations and shared experiences. Despite her social and intellectual pursuits, Hester Thrale was also the wife of a prosperous brewer, Henry Thrale. Their marriage, which began in 1762, was a successful one, marked by mutual respect and companionship. Henry's wealth and social standing provided Hester with the means to cultivate her intellectual interests and entertain the literary luminaries of the day at their home, The Old Brewery in Southwark. This portrait, a testament to Hester's charm and intelligence, offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who played a significant role in the intellectual and social circles of 18th-century London. The warm smile on her face and the elegant jewels adorning her neck and ears speak to her refined sensibilities and the depth of her character.
