Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they cast doubt on the specific points made in the reading passage
The reading and lecturer are both about whether the girl in the painting is Jane Austen or not. The author of the reading states that although the painting was not entitled as Jane Austen, it is believed that the girl in the painting is Austen. The lecturer disagrees. He opposes the claim and attacks each of the reason made in the article.
First, the author begins by stating that the painting is recognized by her family decendents and they have authorized portrait to use as illustration after her demise. The professor believes there are flaws in the writer’s position. He contends that when the portrait was authorized, Auten was dead almost 70 years ago so the family who are claiming the painting might not have known and seen her in real life.
Secondly, the girl in painting is identical to adult Austen painted by her sister Cassandra which was the only accepted painting of Austen. In addition, the feature like face, nose, eyebrow, shape of body and so on in the painting exactly matches with adult Austen. The speaker on other hand points out that since Austen had joint family and there were many cousins who were of teen age, the girl in the painting might resemble any one of them instead. Furthermore, there are few instances to prove the painting to be of her niece..
Finally, the reading passage also notes that although the date was not known, the style of painting is linked to the society painter that the affluent family like Austen would hire during that time. Moreover, the artist was also active duing the time when Austen was a teenage girl. The professor rebuts this argument. He puts forth the idea that the stamp on back of canvas mentioned the portrait was sketched by another artist who was active when Austen was 21 years old. In addition, he started selling painting when she was 27 years old. Therefore, this clearly shows the the girl in the picture is not Austen.
As we can see, the author and speaker holds conflicting views on the portrait whether it is of Austen or not. The speaker effectively challenges the writer’s argumnet.
