Persuasions #9, 1987 Page 46
Competition Winners, 1987 Last year’s competition called on the artistic talents of our
contributors. Members were invited to
design an illustration for one of the juvenilia or Lady Susan, with
suitable caption. Judged the winner was
Judith Judson, or “Adelaide Rackham Cosway,” for her elegant silhouette
depicting Mrs. Vernon and Lady Susan, which provides the cover design and
frontispiece of this issue of Persuasions. Honourable mention goes to Doris Rosenquist, or “Marjorie
Archibald,” for her illustration for Lady Susan, and to another entry of
Judith Judson, or “Rosalba Rowlandson,” for an illustration for Love and
Freindship. Both these designs will
also be found in this issue. Judith
Judson deserves accumulated congratulation for her varied talents, inasmuch as
she was the winner in the 1986 competition for her epistle from Lady Catherine
de Bourgh to Mr. Darcy. |
