APPENDIX C
LIST OF PORTRAITS, PHOTOGRAPHS, ETC., OF FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE
Authentic likenesses of Miss Nightingale, except in her earlier years,
are very few. When she had become famous, she shrank from publicity. She
was very seldom photographed, and as a general rule she refused to sit
for her portrait. The demand for portraits of her was great, and the
demand created a supply. This list includes, however, with one probable
exception (No. 5), only such portraits as are authentic.
(1) 1820-1. Water-colour drawing of F. N. as a baby on the knee of her
Italian nurse Balia. At Lea Hurst.
(2) 1828. Water-colour drawing of Mrs. Nightingale with her two
daughters (Florence is on her mother's knee). In the possession of
Mrs. Leonard Cunliffe, daughter of Sir Douglas Galton. Reproduced as
frontispiece to Vol. I.
(3) 1828. Water-colour drawing of Mrs. Nightingale with her two
daughters, by A. E. Chalon. At Claydon. (Similar to, but not identical
in costume with, the foregoing.)
(4) 1839. Water-colour portrait, by William White, of Florence
Nightingale (sitting) and her sister, Parthenope, standing. In
possession of Mrs. Coltman.
(5) _circ._ 1840. Small oil portrait by Augustus L. Egg, R.A. In the
National Portrait Gallery (No. 1578). This picture was bought from
Mrs. Salis Schwabe (an admirer of Miss Nightingale with whom she had a
slight acquaintance) by Mr. William Rathbone, with a view to its
presentation to the nation; and was given to the Portrait Gallery in
1910 by Mrs. Rathbone in accordance with her husband's desire. In view
of these facts, and as the attribution to Egg agrees with dates, the
Trustees accepted the portrait as authentic. Miss Nightingale's family,
however, doubt whether it is so. There is no general resemblance. The
face is plump, and all other portraits at that age show a thin face. The
narrow ridge of F. N.'s nose is not given. The chestnut colour of the
hair in the portrait is not true to life. The eyebrows are unlike. The
expression is most uncharacteristic. All other early portraits, even
quite slight ones, are remarkable for a peculiarly contained,
self-possessed expression. The dress and ornaments are out of character;
and Miss Nightingale never wore ear-rings. If the portrait be indeed of
her, and by a practised artist, it can hardly have been made from the
life.
(6) _c._ 1845. Pencil sketch by Miss Hilary Bonham Carter. In the
possession of Miss B. A. Clough. Reproduced in Vol. I. p. 38.
(7) _c._ 1850. Full-length, standing beside a pedestal, on which stands
an owl. Engraved by F. Holl from a pencil drawing by Parthenope
Nightingale (Lady Verney). Reproduced in the _Illustrated Times_,
February 2, 1856, and as frontispiece to the _Victoria Miniature
Almanack and Fashionable Remembrancer_ for 1857.
(8) _c._ 1852. Large pencil head, copied about 1880 by J. R. Parsons
from a drawing by Lady Eastlake. The original was in bad condition and
is believed to have been destroyed. The copy is at Lea Hurst.
(9) _c._ 1852. Photograph, three-quarter face, almost profile;
three-quarter length, seated, reading. A striped scarf. Taken in
Germany. At Claydon.
(10) 1854. Photograph, seated, looking down, by Kilburn, then 222 Regent
Street. Taken during Miss Nightingale's time at Harley Street. There
were two positions as mentioned in the letter of Mrs. Sutherland noticed
under No. 15, "looking down in one, in the other the eyes raised." These
are the photographs which some of Miss Nightingale's family considered
the best.
(11) 1854. A sketch; seated, reading a book; white flower in her hair;
red cross on her neck. "H. M. B. C. del." [Miss Hilary Bonham Carter,
whose initials, however, were J. H. B. C.] "Published November 28, 1854,
by P. and D. Colnaghi: Colnaghi's Authentic Series." There was also
published an uncoloured print of the same drawing, which in turn was
adapted in various forms--as in a print published by W. Bemrose & Sons,
lettered "Miss Florence Nightingale, the Good Samaritan of Derbyshire,
reading the accounts of the dreadful sufferings of our brave wounded
soldiers," etc., etc.
(12) 1855. Miss Florence Nightingale and Mr. Bracebridge on Cathcart's
Hill, May 8, 1855. Lithographed by Day, and published. This drawing was
made up by Lady Verney and Lady Anne Blunt from a slight sketch by
Mrs. Bracebridge. Many other prints, still further removed from life,
were published--such as: "Florence Nightingale in the Military Hospital
at Scutari" (a coloured print published, March 16, 1855, by Read & Co.,
10 Johnson's Court, Fleet Street); "Miss Florence Nightingale, the
Soldiers' Friend" (drawn by Elston, published May 1, 1856, by Ellis, 51
Jewin Street, City); and "The Great Military Hospital at Scutari"
(published, with a sentimental legend, Feb. 24, 1855, by Stannard &
Dixon, 7 Poland Street).
(13) 1856. Oil picture of Miss Nightingale receiving the wounded at
Scutari, by Jerry Barratt. Engraved as "Florence Nightingale at Scutari,
A Mission of Mercy," by S. Bellin. The picture is in the possession of
Sir Percy Bates, Bart.
(14) 1856. Photograph, three-quarter length, three-quarter face,
standing, by The London Stereoscopic Co. This photograph was taken at
the request of Queen Victoria, and has often been reproduced.
(15) 1856. Plaster statuette; standing, with a lamp in the right hand,
by Miss Hilary Bonham Carter. At Lea Hurst. There are several replicas,
or versions with some differences. One is at St. Thomas's Hospital;
another, in Mr. Henry Bonham Carter's possession; another, at Claydon. A
second version was, by advice of Mr. Woolner, R.A., made less full in
the skirt. A small version, on a reduced scale (about 15 in. high), was
also made, and is very widespread. There is a letter to Miss Nightingale
from Mrs. Sutherland (June 1866), in which she says: "There are
photographs of the statuette which (though it seems odd to say so) are
more characteristic than the actual portraits, none of which but the
'owl' one [No. 7], which you deprecate, give a real idea of what you
were ten years ago."
(16) _c._ 1858. Photograph, full-length, full face, standing, by
Goodman. This was generally considered by Miss Nightingale's family to
be the best likeness; reproduced in Vol. I. p. 394.
(17) 1862. Marble bust, by Sir John Steell. This bust, presented to Miss
Nightingale by the non-commissioned officers and men of the British
Army, has been placed in the Museum of the Royal United Service
Institution in accordance with the provisions of her will. There is a
replica at Lea Hurst.
(18) 1864. Commencement of a head by G. F. Watts, R.A. Miss Nightingale
was persuaded by Sir Harry Verney to receive Mr. Watts on one or two
occasions, who made a beginning only of a portrait. It is very slight,
and Mr. Watts regarded it as so far a failure. He hoped to be able to
resume the work, but abandoned the idea when Sir William Richmond made a
portrait. The unfinished canvas is at Limnerslease.
(19) 1887. Oil portrait, half-length, by Sir W. B. Richmond, R.A. At
Claydon. Reproduced as frontispiece to this volume. 1887 was the year of
the final sittings; the portrait was begun at an earlier date.
(20) _c._ 1890. Photograph, side face, in veil, by Colonel G. Lloyd
Verney.
(21) 1891. Photograph, three-quarter length, seated on a couch, full
face, by S. G. Payne & Son, Aylesbury. Taken at Claydon.
(22) 1906. Two photographs of Miss Nightingale in her room; by Miss E.
F. Bosanquet. One of these, enlarged, is reproduced above, p. 306.
(23) 1907. Two water-colour drawings (and a replica), by Miss F. Amicia
de Biden Footner. One is reproduced above, p. 404. These drawings of
Miss Nightingale in her room at South Street are in possession of
various members of the family.
(24) 1908. Chalk-drawing, by Countess Feodora Gleichen. At Windsor, made
(from life) by command of King Edward VII. for a collection of portraits
of members of the Order of Merit.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg
Project Gutenberg is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
from people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg’s
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.
Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread
public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.
Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.
Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.
This website includes information about Project Gutenberg,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
