The reading and the article are both about a portrait for the famous English novelist, Jane Austen. The author thinks provides three evidences to prove that the portrait is image of the Jane Austin, however, the speaker says that these evidences are not convincing, and he gives counter evidences that refutes the claims in the reading.
First of all, the article states that Austin's family gave permission to use the portrait as an illustration in her edition of her letters and recognized it as a portrait of the author. The professor, on the other hand, rebuts this claim by mentioning that happened after the death of Austin by more than 70 year, so none of them really saw her in her real life. As a result, they can not assure whether the painting is for Austin or not.
Second, the text argues that person in the portrait resembles the sketch that was drawn for Austin in the life and all the features are still similar to those teenage girl in the painting. The lecturer goes against this claim. He points out that there is no prove that this image is for Austin, and it could be for one her close relatives. He elaborates on this by stating that Austin had many members of the family that were in the same age at this time, especially one of her nieces who resembled her a lot.
Third, the reading claims that there is evidence that it was painted by Ozias Humphery, aman who lived in the same time of Austin , which gives prominent to this the supposition that is real image of her. The speaker, on contrast, rebuts this claim by explaining that the canvas used for the painting proved to be bought by someone that lived in another time long when Austin was in her 70s. Hence, it is unlikely to be an authentic portrait for Austin.
