Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

Elizabeth Gaskell NPG 1720

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by George Richmond

George Richmond was a leading portraitist, who made simple, but fine, chalk portraits of many celebrities of the day. Gaskell sat for her portrait while in London to see the Great Exhibition of 1851. She believed it to be a good likeness, noting in a letter 'I think it is like me; I hope Papa will think so but I am almost doubtful.'
