A Crown as “A Speaking Picture”: Interspersed Images in Pamphilia to Amphilanthus

Lady Mary Wroth’s sonnet sequence, Pamphilia to Amphilanthus, contains a group of
sonnets entitled, “A Crowne of Sonnets Dedicated to Love.” This crown is written in an Italian
poetic form in which the last line of each stanza is succeeded by the first line of the following
stanza, giving it a very complicated structure. As the title suggests, it represents a crown which
is dedicated to Cupid, yet it further evokes the images of a labyrinth or miniature painting due
to its complexity and intricacy. It is well known that Wroth was influenced by her uncle, Sir
Philip Sidney, and in Crowne, she specifically adapted his poetic ideas to create her poetic style.
In this paper, I attempt to confirm the images portrayed in the crown of sonnets as “a speaking
picture,” considering the circumstances surrounding the speaker, Pamphilia.
