Anna Brownell Jameson (1794–1860)
Anna Brownell Jameson (1794–1860) was an Irish-born British writer and one of the nineteenth century's leading interpreters of Christian iconography in art. Her Sacred and Legendary Art series explained saints, monastic legends, and Marian imagery to English readers. She approached the material as an art historian rather than as a Roman Catholic apologist.
