Springfield Republican (Springfield, Massachusetts), 12 April 1904, page 8. Here is a transcription of this article: Guests of the Martha Washington women’s hotel in New York City put out a promising blaze in a trunk-room on the 11 th floor, Sunday, by bringing their full water-pitchers, and dousing the flames, which in five minutes would have got beyond such control.

Definitely AI-generated, not based on any known pictures as far as I can see. Cheaper than paying artists, I suppose, although they claim to have a 'collection of commission[ed] artwork inspired by [....]  The Memoir Club'.

Is this VW, VB, CB etc. You tell me.
It’s The Memoir Club, so it says.

(And 'Orlando' . . .)

The pics are imaginative representations based (at least in some cases) on photographs. The intention is illustrative rather than realistic, I suppose.

Struggling to find any trace of E. M. Forster in his portrait though!

I hope you’ll like this a little more: Virginia surrounded by flowers.
There is also one of Vita Sackville-West too.

Subject: [Vwoolf] Woolf in Norway

The Norwegian newspaper "Klassekampen" (= "Class Struggle") produces a book supplement every weekend. This week there are 3 pages on Virginia Woolf by Swedish writer Peter Englund, concentrating on Woolf's struggles with "The Years" as detailed in her diary. The link below takes you to the front of the supplement, which contains a portrait that to my eye looks nothing like Woolf. In addition, the main body of the newspaper contains a couple of pages about D. H. Lawrence, so Norwegian lovers of the 20th century English novel have plenty to enjoy over the weekend.
