Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

John Keats NPG 1605

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by Joseph Severn

This haunting portrait of John Keats was painted by his friend Joseph Severn. It presents Keats as an isolated, poetic genius. The portrait was painted while Keats was writing his Odes and just before the onset of his fatal illness. The first version of this portrait was a watercolour miniature that Severn gave to the poet's fiancée, Fanny Brawne, even though Keats was against the gift.
