Miss Bishop originally prepared this drawing in the early 1940's for a 1945 edition of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice" which was never published; the drawings were eventually reproduced for a Special Book-of-the-Month Club edition of Jane Austen's novel, published in New York by E. P. Dutton in 1976.
