Miss Annabel Emson Country Life Magazine Portrait, Frontispiece, January 25, 2001. CXCV No. 4

Miss Annabel Emson - Annabel, aged 25, is an artist. After graduating from Chelsea College of Art and Design, she spent a year painting in a studio in SoHo, New York, and now specialises in large, colourful works that lie between abstract and figurative. She is photographed here with a section of one of her latest paintings, Fort Knox, which she sold at her recent successful exhibition at the Old Truman Brewery, Brick Lane.

This is an authentic original page from Country Life magazine, part of the iconic series often affectionately referred to as the “Girls in Pearls” portraits — elegant society images that captured a distinctive era of British publishing and portraiture.

Size: Approximately 12.5 x 9 inches (32 x 23 cm)

Condition: Very good for its age. As with all vintage magazine pages, light signs of handling or minor age-related blemishes may be present. Please review the large photo carefully for full condition details. The reverse side contains unrelated printed text, as issued.

This original Country Life Magazine frontispiece portrait forms part of The Old Map Shop’s curated archive of society portraits published between 1897 and 2026.
