EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed author, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin, who fearlessly advocated for women's rights in her groundbreaking work, "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman". Engraved by the talented W. T. Annis and published in 1802, this portrait captures the essence of a woman ahead of her time. Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin was not only an influential writer but also a mother to Mary Shelley, renowned for her masterpiece "Frankenstein". Tragically, she met an untimely demise during childbirth at the age of 38. However, her legacy lives on through her profound ideas and literary contributions. The photograph exudes a sense of strength and determination as it immortalizes this remarkable figure from history. Her piercing gaze reflects both intelligence and resilience, embodying the spirit that fueled her fight for gender equality. Displayed within a private collection today, this image serves as a reminder of Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin's indelible mark on society. It is a testament to her unwavering belief in equal rights for all individuals regardless of gender. As we admire this powerful portrait captured by John Opie, let us remember Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin's enduring impact on feminism and continue to champion the cause she dedicated her life to advancing.
