DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: Two letters from Miss Rushforth relating to the gift are stored with the print. They provide some biographical detail; Yolande Marie Louise de Varnay (sometimes known as Pauline Duvernay) was a ballerina, trained by Marie Taglioni, and married Mr Lyne-Stephens, a wealthy Englishman in 1845. She moved to Lynford Hall, Near Norwich, Norfolk and when her husband died in 1861 she was left with a vast fortune. The widow formed a passionate attachment to a general who had been British Ambassador to France, which apparently caused a scandal. After the death of the general, Mrs Lyne-Stephens decided to give her money to charities and built the Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs in Cambridge. Within the chruch is a bust of the widow and the coat of arms of her husband. The original portrait by Carolus-Duran was at some point on display in the church. Mrs Lyne-Stephens died in 1894.
