EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic Kitty Fisher, a prominent British courtesan of the 18th century. Created by Francis Cotes in 1750 and reproduced in 1920, this image captures the essence of a woman whose allure was heightened by her association with renowned artist Sir Joshua Reynolds. Kitty Fisher's beauty and charm made her a celebrity of her time, as she captivated both high society and artistic circles. In this portrait, she is depicted seated, leaning on her elbow with an air of melancholy. Her golden hair cascades down adorned with a delicate hair slide, while a striking gold bracelet adorns her wrist. The pastel color palette adds to the softness and elegance of the composition. The photograph exudes an aura of forlorn sadness that contrasts with Kitty Fisher's glamorous reputation. It serves as a reminder that even those who seem to have it all can experience moments of vulnerability and longing. Published in "The Connoisseur Vol. LVI" by Otto Limited in London, this print preserves Kitty Fisher's legacy for future generations to admire. It stands as a testament to both her profession as a courtesan and her connection to esteemed artists like Sir Joshua Reynolds. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are transported back to an era where women like Kitty Fisher held immense power over hearts and minds alike—a true star shining brightly amidst the vibrant tapestry of history.
