英法才女在漢清講堂 Virginia Woolf by Vanessa Bell, 1912. Portrait of Berthe Morisot with a Fan

 

National Portrait Gallery 

Celebrated as one of the most influential writers of the 20th century, Virginia Woolf was born #OnThisDay in 1882.

Many of her novels, notably Night and Day, Jacob's Room, Mrs Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, and The Waves, pioneered the use of the interior monologue, or 'stream of consciousness' which is when a writer attempts to represent the multiple thoughts and feelings which pass through the mind of a character.

Her essay A Room of One's Own has become a classic of feminist literature, as it advocates that women need financial independence to achieve creative freedom. The domestic scene is apparent in this portrait by her eldest sister, Vanessa Bell, whom she lived with in London and later nearby in East Sussex.

If you want to find out more about Woolf and this depiction, why not join our #PortraitOfTheDay talk tomorrow at 12.30 in Room 24 on Floor 2.

國家肖像畫廊 3天 · 維吉尼亞·伍爾夫 (Virginia Woolf) 出生於 1882 年#OnThisDay，被譽為 20 世紀最有影響力的作家之一。 她的許多小說，特別是《夜與日》、《雅各的房間》、《達洛維夫人》、《到燈塔去》和《海浪》，都開創了使用內心獨白或「意識流」的方式，即作家試圖表達多重想法和情感。人物內心深處的感受。 她的文章《一間自己的房間》已成為女性主義文學的經典，因為它主張女性需要經濟獨立才能實現創作自由。在她與她一起住在倫敦的姐姐瓦妮莎·貝爾的這幅肖像中，家庭場景顯而易見後來在東薩塞克斯附近。 ⭐ 如果您想了解更多關於伍爾夫和這個描繪的信息，為什麼不參加我們明天 12 點 30 分在 2 樓 24 室舉行的#PortraitOfTheDay 講座呢。 🎨 Vanessa Bell 創作的《弗吉尼亞·伍爾夫》，1912 年 © 倫敦國家肖像畫廊
