At Little Holland House the culte of beauty continued from the Pattle sisters into the next generation. Like most of her aunts, it was Julia’s beauty which, of all her characteristics, was most remarked upon, even as a child. From the beginning she was usually portrayed as a vision – as ethereal, idealised and elusive.
Leslie Stephen was born in Kensington, London on 28 November 1832. A sickly child, the family moved to Brighton in 1840 partly for his health, and later to Windsor. Stephen attended Eton College as a day boy but gained more intellectually from his freedom to read at home and the atmosphere of learning in the household.
While Sara and Thoby Prinsep were busy moving to Little Holland House, 1 Mia Jackson continued her visits to health resorts. She and her daughters spent the winter of 1850-1851 in Brussels and Julia’s fifth summer was again in Spa, this time with a group of other Pattle aunts and cousins.
