Elizabeth Barrett Browning would have received this letter from her cousin John Kenyon at her flat in 50 Wimpole Street, London. She lived here between the years of 1838 and 1846, experiencing such events as mourning the death of her favorite brother, the success of her 1844 Poems (which included A Drama of Exile), and the beginning of her courtship with Robert Browning. She ended her time at Wimpole Street by eloping to Italy with Robert Browning. The picture included is not the original house that EBB lived in, but there is a commemorative plaque that hangs on the new house today. EBB would have sent and received many letters from this address, and the Armstrong Browning Library holds many of these letters in The Browning Letters collection.
