EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs Lort Mansel: A Victorian Widow in Mourning This evocative image captures the somber yet dignified presence of Mrs Lort Mansel, a Victorian widow from an esteemed Welsh family. Dressed in the traditional mourning attire of the time, she is seen here in a black gown and a crisp white bonnet, holding a book in her hand. The year was likely around the 1860s, and she is believed to be Isabella Mansel, the widow of the Reverend Lort Mansel of Minsterworth. The Reverend Lort Mansel, a respected Vicar and Minister, passed away in Tenby at the age of 76 in 1866. Mrs Mansel's attire and demeanor reflect the solemnity and reverence of the era, as well as the deep sense of loss and introspection that often accompanied widowhood in Victorian times. The book in her hand, a symbol of knowledge and learning, adds an intellectual and thoughtful air to her image. Mrs Mansel's expression suggests a quiet strength and resilience, as she faces the challenges of widowhood and the passing of time. Her connection to the Polhill Lort family of Minsterworth, a prominent Welsh family with a rich history, further adds to the intrigue and allure of this photograph.
