Jane Austen (1775-1817) is one of the most famous of all English novelists, and today her novels are more popular than ever, with several recently adapted as Hollywood movies. But we do not have many records of what she looked like. For a long time, the o

This material addresses the issue of the authenticity of the portrait related to the famous writer Jane Austen. The reading passage suggests that the portrait is a professional work with the image of Austen. The lecturer, on the other hand, refutes this information by stating that there is not enough evidence for the mentioned conclusion.
To begin with, the reading passage highlights that Austen's family recognized the authenticity of the portrait over a century ago when they sanctioned its use as an illustration to a Austen's book. However, the professor casts doubt on this and argues that by the time of the book's publication Austen had been dead for about seventy years and, therefore, her relatives could not have seen the famous writer to be able to recognize her picture.
Additionally, the article posits that the image on the portrait resembles the face of adult Austen depicted on the sketch drawn by her sister. Meanwhile, the professor advocates a different approach and provides the following details. Namely, he mentions that the person on the portrait could have been one of Austen's teenage relatives.
Finally, the author invites attention to the fact that the style of the portrait may be linked to a professional painter who chronologically and due to some other considerations could have been the creator of the picture at the time when Austin was a teenager. This goes counter to the listening passage, according to which, the stamp on the canvas connects it to a person who started to sell canvases only after Austin had become 27.
