Victorian Ladies and Gents

Here's some period image research for some of the characters.
I love this image for Elizabeth and baby Lotty! Pretty remarkable that this was an actual photograph from the time.
This jaunty fellow reminds me of Mr. Irving
A lady taking off her clothes to be in nature! Sounds familiar...
And here are some Victorian portraits of married couples--shows you the formality that characterized the relationship
This picture is good for the setting of the Givings' living room, but I also love the expression on this woman's face! Like she just heard or shared a delightfully naughty secret...
This is a lovely image that reminds me of Mrs. Givings--waiting, ladylike, in the next room.
