Prompt
Generate an image of a British woman writer and teacher from the early 20th century, sitting at a desk with a pen in hand, surrounded by books and papers, with a gentle and introspective expression. She should be dressed in attire typical of the era, with a hint of a Victorian influence. In the background, a subtle image of Thomas Hardy's writing desk or a related literary element should be visible, paying homage to her notable work as his biographer. The style should be reminiscent of a classic early 20th-century portrait, with muted colors and soft lighting.
