Abstract

Description

This three-quarter length, full face portrait depicts Mrs Samuel Carter Hall, nee Anna Maria Fielding, seated holding an open book. She was an Irish novelist who often published as "Mrs. S.C. Hall". 'She was born in Dublin, but left Ireland at the age of 15. Nevertheless, her home country was the theme for several of her most successful books, such as "Sketches of Irish Character" (1829), "Lights and Shadows of Irish Character" (1838), Marian (1839), and "The Whiteboy" (1845).'
