This BookBench uses a silhouette, very popular in the regency period and Jane’s favourite colour, turquoise, to celebrate her love of dancing and the importance of dancing in her love stories. This is a very special location – St Nicholas’ church is where her father and later her brother, were rector and Jane was born just down the road in a farmhouse long demolished but not forgotten. Jane lived there for 25 of her 41 years. Steventon was very much the cradle of her genius.
