Specialist Notes
Copy that belonged to the writer Radclyffe Hall and the sculptor Una "Vincenzo" Troubridge, a famous lesbian couple who were protagonists of European cultural life at the time. The dry, elegant and simple style of Doves Press publications is very recognizable in this collection of Homeric and mythological themed poems written by Tennyson.
