The Portrait Of A Lady

By Alvin Langdon Coburn Henry James

The Portrait of a Lady is a classic novel written by Henry James and features a stunning photographic cover by Alvin Langdon Coburn. The story follows the life of Isabel Archer, a young American woman who travels to Europe to experience life and find love. She is independent and determined, but her journey is fraught with challenges and obstacles, including a bad marriage, betrayal, and deceit. The novel explores themes of freedom, identity, and the consequences of one's choices. James' writing style is known for its intricate and nuanced character development, and his portrayal of Isabel is no exception. The cover photograph by Coburn is a stunning example of early 20th-century photography, featuring a soft-focus portrait of a woman in a flowing dress.
