Episode 4: Fanny Cornforth - The Plight of a Stunner


Listen Later

**Explicit Language Used**This week Desi weaves the story of Fanny Cornforth, a stunning Pre-Raphaelite Muse. A woman whose reputation was slandered while also inspiring some of the most influential and beautiful works of art. A woman who had a decades long love-affair with a painter who she knew would never make her an "honest woman". A woman who was wronged so many times it starts to hurt your own heart. A woman who really needed some girl best friends to tell her to, "Run, Fanny! Run!!!". Join the Hystorians as they become the girl besties she needed and deserved to have during her life and laugh, cry, and scream along!Bibliography/Sources Used ⁠Link⁠Produced and Hosted by: Liz Ardeen and Desi McChesneySpecial thanksLogo credit: Tori Nelson Instagram (@torinelsonart)Theme song by: Nick Lennon Instagram (@gothiclemonphoto)and to listeners like you, thank you.
