Icons: Jane Austen, Jane Eyre, and The Brontë Sisters  
It's amazing how fast all these things collect in my files!! These ones are a bit older -- I'm not making these as fast as I post them, lol. ;-P

Close to four dozen icons this time, of various Regency fashion plates, as well as a lot of C.E. Brock illustrations for some of Jane Austen's novels. Also some illustrations by Hugh Thompson for Jane Eyre, various images of the Brontë sisters, and some Pride & Prejudice 2005 icontest entries. ;-)

As always, never alter my graphics, comment, credit, and enjoy!

Teasers:
1 2 3



Please, if you take anything, be so kind as to take note of the numbers of the icon(s) you're saving, since I am always experimenting with my styles and I would like to know what people like best. (This helps me so I can make more!) The numbers are above the icons.

Sure! I got them from Project Gutenberg.
