Jane Austen Exhibit in NYC

Post by princess garnet » Mon November 9th, 2009, 9:44 pm

Attention Jane Austen fans! There's an exhibit about her, "A Woman's Wit: Jane Austen's Life and Legacy", at the Morgan Library & Museum in NYC until March 14, 2010.
I found this out through a library listserv that I subscribe

Wow! Wish I lived in New York.

I did google that portrait that's mentioned though. Looks like the 1995 Jane Bennet is closest to what Austen herself intended.

Oh! I must go to this. Fortunately, the Morgan isn't that far from the GCT...
