EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning studio portrait captures the elegance and allure of Elinor Glyn, a British novelist and scriptwriter renowned for her specialization in romantic fiction. The image, taken in 1910, was specifically commissioned for HIH Grand Duchess Vladimir of the Imperial Russian Family, to whom Glyn had dedicated her latest novel, "His Hour." The author, dressed in a formal gown, exudes an air of sophistication and confidence as she holds a quill pen, ready to sign an autograph. Born in 1864, Elinor Glyn rose to prominence in the literary world with her provocative and sensual novels, which captured the hearts of readers in the early 20th century. Her works, including "Three Weeks" and "It," were known for their frank exploration of sexuality and passion, making her a trailblazer for women's sexual liberation. The portrait, captioned "The author of 'His Hour,' and Elinor Glyn (Mrs Clayton Glyn), whose new novel is just published," provides a glimpse into the glamour and allure of the literary world during the 1910s. The image is a testament to Glyn's enduring legacy as a pioneering writer and a symbol of the changing social norms of the time. This portrait is a must-have for any collection of literary history or women's studies.
