“What I remember is the loveliness that has been mine because of you: the shared beauties of Nature in all its forms; the world of books and the people in that world; the companionship in music; but above all the living inspiration of you.”

Dorothy Freeman in a letter to Rachel Carson, from Letters of Note: Love, compiled by Shaun Usher

‘My darling [Dorothy], (…) No one but you, darling, has ever expressed such lovely thoughts so beautifully as you have in your letters and in some of the precious moments we have had together in the woods or by the shore or under the night sky (…) Goodnight, dearest, I shall be thinking of you as you read this.  You know I love you deeply and tenderly- and all ways! - Rachel’

Victorian drag portraits, anyone?

These photos (1, 2, 3) from the James Gardiner Collection are open access and available to view on JSTOR courtesy of the Wellcome Collection.

Dating from the 1850s to 1890s, the hand-colored portraits come from a Victorian album of 35 cartes de visite showing private and theatrical female impersonation. While many of these performances were intended as entertainment, the images also gesture toward gender nonconformity and queer expression.

See more from the album.
