Wonder what Will was like? Great find thanks for sharing. Hope she was both useful and beautiful - she must have been or he wouldn't have had her in his house would he - could be a double meaning in there somewhere. LOL.
Thanks for your comment on my blog! Yes, I know of the Sharrow piano but I don't think it is there any longer! It used to be half way up sharrow vale, near the jag garage.... a piano on the street that people could go up and play! x
The lovely Janey, we have pictures of her in our house. I bet her blog would have been fascinating. surrounded by all those men with their artistic temperments.
She'd have had so much to talk about and one would imagine her posts full of wonderful illustrations. Her accounts of life at Kelmscott Manor would have been fascinating:)
I love the way she is remembered as a Pre-Raphaelite Muse and Embroiderer!
That's so cool, I love it!
ReplyDeleteBee happy x
Have a delicious day!
Yes, all that she could have written about in a blog! It would have been fascinating.

Hi I came over from diane's blog , My life in Charante ..Wonder what you were doing in Oxford, its a long way from home.
ReplyDeleteDiane and I had a fab day out .. I must look out for this sign next time ... interesting. Look forward to seeing your photos :-)
I wonder if she ever fancied a change from his colourful style. I can't really imagine her saying "Oh William can't we just have white!"

Would love to read her blog. I love stumbling across these blue plaques.

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tribute - Pre-Raphelite muse.... I'm clicking over to Google images to see if there are any paintings of her.
ReplyDeleteI always think it must be lovely to be someone's muse x
ReplyDeleteSeen plenty of paintings of her - don't recall any with her doing embroidery though!
