She was a fantastic woman! I admire her…

she was so beautiful,but her husband was a tool…

The last picture is of Georgiana and her sister Harriet

I know, I just never know who is who of them in these caricatures :) Harriet is in the picture above as well.

Common problem,I think that the person of highest status was usually given center stage,in this case its Georgina.
