Drawn on Stone by W. Walton from a picture by Edwin W. Jacques.
Published by T. Catherall, Bookseller, Chester [n.d., c.1840].
Tinted lithograph. Sheet 285 x 380mm (11¼ x 15") very large margins. Some abrasion in title and publication line.
The 'Ladies of Llangollen' were Sarah Ponsonby (1755? - 1831), daughter of Chambre Brabazon Ponsonby, cousin of the Earl of Bessborough, and Lady Eleanor Charlotte Butler (1745? - 1829). For fifty years they lived together in complete isolation from society in a cottage at Plasnewydd in the vale of Llangollen, Denbighshire, north Wales. Neither left the cottage for a single night until their deaths. Their devotion to each other and their eccentric manners gave them wide notoriety, becoming a tourist attraction. They lie buried in Plasnewydd churchyard under a triangular pyramid inscribed with their names.
