Nice painting for Pride and Prejudice

Here's a lovely painting which made me think of  Pride and Prejudice.

Elizabeth Bennet perhaps?  Or Jane Bennet?

(Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen).

Pride and Prejudice -- guess who's who in this picture

Ok, which one's Mrs. Bennet?

And Jane Bennet?

And where's Bingley?

Take a guess and have some fun!
