Summary

Description
English: Illustration for Chapter 30 of "Evan Harrington." Once a Week, Volume 3, page 85. Depicts an early point in the Beckley picnic. The Countess is on the left ("dressed ravishingly; slightly in a foreign style .... The neck ... was deliciously veiled with fine lace .... Off her gentle shoulders, as it were some fringe of cloud blown by the breeze this sweet lady opened her bosom to, curled a lovely black lace scarf ...") She was seated on the hill where the dowagers congregated, at the rear, but has been sent by Lady Jocelyn to draw Harry Jocelyn away from a group of farmers' daughters; she takes the opportunity to re-confirm her hold over him.
