Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

Emilia Francis (née Strong), Lady Dilke NPG 1828a

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by Pauline, Lady Trevelyan (née Jermyn), and Laura Capel Lofft (later Lady Trevelyan)

The earlier of these two portraits shows Dilke as an artist, recorded by her friend Pauline, Lady Trevelyan, who had commissioned Dilke to provide decorative panels for her house at Wallington. Dilke's dress shows the influence of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. The later portrait by Camino shows Dilke as an established art historian, in a costume inspired by eighteenth-century French fashions.

Card size: 125mm x 175mm
