Standing on the right, Sophia Farrell was not just a cook and housekeeper for the Stephen family but also had the privilege of working for renowned writer Virginia Woolf during her marriage. The photograph is part of a private collection, shedding light on an era long gone. The image portrays a group portrait that exudes elegance and formality. The maids are dressed immaculately in their uniforms, reflecting the Victorian era's strict social hierarchy within households. A charming addition to this scene is a pet dog, adding warmth and companionship amidst their duties. This photograph offers us a glimpse into the lives of those who worked behind closed doors to maintain the smooth functioning of grand households like that of the Stephen family.
