The Portrait of a Lady [SEP] Introduction
The Portrait of a Lady is a novel by Henry James, first published as a serial in "The Atlantic Monthly" and "Macmillan's Magazine" in 1880–81 and then as a book in 1881. It is one of James's most popular long novels and is regarded by critics as one of his finest. "The Portrait of a Lady" is the story of a spirited young American woman, Isabel Archer, who, "confronting her destiny", finds it overwhelming. She inherits a large amount of money and subsequently becomes the victim of Machiavellian scheming by two American expatriates. Like many of James's novels, it is set in Europe, mostly England and Italy.
