[I think this picture is a good representation of the familial relationships which are developing in Loving Lydia. I can see Elizabeth from this story pulling Lydia to her side like this and helping her along the path of life.]

“Do you think he will see her?” Elizabeth whispered to Darcy. Lydia had eaten little yesterday or today. Between the worry over the damage Mary might have done by being so outspoken to Lord Westonbury and concern about the colonel, she had little appetite and wandered from room to room unable to focus on any task. To be honest, Elizabeth was more than a little anxious about the state of her youngest sister’s mind.
“We are hopeful,” Darcy replied.

Leenie Brown fell in love with Jane Austen's works when she first read Sense and Sensibility followed immediately by Pride and Prejudice in her early teens. As the second of five daughters and an avid reader, she has always loved to see where her imagination takes her and to play with and write about the characters she meets along the way. In 2013, these two loves collided when she stumbled upon the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction. A year later, in 2014, she began writing her own Austen-inspired stories and began publishing them in 2015. Leenie lives in Nova Scotia, Canada with her two teenage boys and her very own Mr. Brown (a wonderful mix of all the best of Darcy, Bingley and Edmund with healthy dose of the teasing Mr. Tillney and just a dash of the scolding Mr. Knightley).

What a delightful picture. Isn’t it interesting that Lydia is worried about the damage Mary may have done with her actions or words? While in the past, she never gave a thought about what her actions and words were doing to her family or her sisters. I find that very poignant.
I love this picture. And isn’t that interesting about Lydia? It’s amazing how her point of view is shifting as life (and love) matures her. 🙂
Oh I adore this painting. it is a darling image yet so poignant too, to use J.W.’s word. You find the best images Leenie. This is another one I could stare at for hours.
I can get lost for hours looking at images 🙂 I’m glad you enjoy the results 🙂
