1841 Blessington Ellen Evidently Fond Landseer Niece Noted Power
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print depicts Ellen Power, a beloved figure in Victorian society and the beloved niece of the renowned social leader, Lady Blessington. Born in the early 1800s, Ellen Power was known for her deep connection with nature, particularly her fondness for birds. Her affinity for these creatures was evidently reciprocated, as she was often surrounded by them in various paintings and illustrations. One of the most notable depictions of Ellen Power is her portrait, painted by the esteemed British artist Sir Edwin Landseer in circa 1841. Landseer, famous for his animal paintings, captured the essence of Ellen's gentle spirit and her deep bond with birds in this beautiful portrait. The painting shows Ellen sitting in a lush garden, surrounded by various birds, including a parrot perched on her shoulder and a canary resting on her lap. The serene expression on her face and the peaceful setting convey a sense of harmony between the woman and the birds. Ellen Power's connection to Lady Blessington further solidified her place in Victorian society. Lady Blessington, born Anne Chambers, was a prominent socialite, writer, and patron of the arts. She was known for her salons, which attracted some of the most influential figures of the time, including writers, artists, and politicians. Ellen Power was a regular attendee and became a cherished member of Lady Blessington's inner circle. This photograph print serves as a poignant reminder of Ellen Power's place in history as a beloved figure in Victorian society, known for her deep connection to nature and her enduring bond with birds. The painting by Landseer, with its beautiful depiction of Ellen and her avian companions, continues to captivate viewers and inspire awe over a century and a half after it was created.
