Description
-
Here we see Fanny visiting Miss Crawford and Mrs. Grant at the parsonage, discussing the ball. Fanny did not leave Mansfield Park the day after the ball, but the next day she went down to the parsonage to discuss the events of the ball. This scene occurs in chapter 29. The characters are shown in the traditional regency style. Fanny, Miss Crawford, and Mrs. Grant wear regency style dresses with empire waists. The regency period dated to the early nineteenth century (1811-1820) when George, Prince of Wales, later George IV (r. 1820-1830), reigned as regent for his mentally ill father, King George III (r. 1760-1820). The regency period is associated with the rise of neoclassicism in art and fashion.
