[Next Project] These Old Shades by Georgette Heyer

[Emma Sweeney]

Since I produced Heyer's The Masqueraders, I might as well produce her other Georgian novel, These Old Shades. Once this is released, we will have three of her four public-domain Georgian novels in our corpus. The last book, The Black Moth, is on the list for first-time producers.

The covers for this book usually depict a beautiful woman in Georgian fashion; there are two paintings that I found so far:

1. Madame Bergeret by François Boucher

CC0 proof

2. Mary Robinson (née Darby) by Sir Joshua Reynolds

CC0 proof

OK, #1 looks good. Please add it to the DB when you have a moment, thanks!
