Lacan Frames Scorsese’s Paintings in The Age of Innocence
Scorsese shows Ellen Olenska’s freedom and different taste with a contrast to May. The van der Luydens’ dinner in honor of Countess Olenska ends with a close-up on May’s face and Louisa’s words: “I think I’ve never seen May looking lovelier. The Duke thinks her the handsomest woman in the room” (The Age of Innocence).
From the closeup on May’s stereotypical Victorian beauty, the camera moves on the painting with a faceless woman with a parasol, where the absence of physical beauty and even traits, alludes to a world different from May’s.

‘To Miss Elizabeth Bennet. Be not alarmed, Madam, on receiving this letter, that it contain any repetition of those sentiments or renewal of those offers which were this evening so disgusting to you. But I must be allowed to defend myself against the charges laid at my door. In particular those relating to Mr Wickham, which if true, would indeed be grievous; but are wholly without foundation, and which I can only refute by laying before you his connection with my family.‘
