The lecture and the passage are both about a teenager girl's portrait whether belongs to Jane Austen or not. The author of the reading believes that the girl is Jane Austen. The professor casts doubt on claims made by the author. SHe offers plausible explanations that the picture do not depict her.
First of all, the author argues that in 1882, the family of Austin permitted to use her letters to illustrate the portrait. The article mentions that the family endorsed the claim that Jane Austin was portrayed in the artwork. This specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. She points out that since she was deceased many years ago, any family member had never seen her. Therefore, recognition might be a fault.
Secondly, the writer suggests that the facial appearance in the sketch of Cassandra bears resemblance to the one in the portrait. In the reading, it is said that although Jane Austen was an adult in the sketch, she looked like the teen in the work of art. The speaker, however, rebuts this by mentioning many girls in the family were teenagers and similar to Jane. She elaborates on this by bringing up the point that her family were large, and any girl relative might be depicted (For example Mary Ann Campion).
Finally, the author posits that the design of the portrait belongs to the renowned painter, Ozias Humphrey. Moreover, according to the article, as Austen's family were rich, they could afford to recruit him. On the contrary, the lecturer's position is
claiming that the style is not Humphrey's and the painting attributes to William Legg. She notes a stamp on the portrait helped to indicate a possible date of the artwork. When Legg started selling canvas, Jane was not a teenager, however, she was 27 years old.
