EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Anita Chartres, the English author also known as Annie Vivanti, in the corner of a room around 1898. Standing confidently in a Victorian dress, she leans against a bookshelf adorned with statues and an array of books. The composition exudes an air of intellect and creativity. Anita's pose suggests that she is deep in thought or perhaps engrossed in her writing. Behind her, a mirror reflects her image, adding depth to the scene. The lace details on her dress add a touch of elegance to this timeless portrait. The photographer, Byron Company (fl. 1890-1942), skillfully captured Anita's essence as both a writer and woman of letters during this era. This silver gelatin print measures 25.4x20.3 cm and is now part of the esteemed collection at the Museum of the City of New York. Anita Chartres' contribution to literature remains significant even today, making this photograph all the more intriguing for literary enthusiasts worldwide. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to a bygone era where writers like Anita shaped our understanding through their words. This stunning photograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical document – capturing not only one woman's presence but also offering us insight into an entire epoch defined by intellectual pursuits and domestic aesthetics.
