2026 Regency Era Calendar & Jane Austen Quotes

In 2012, I created twelve pages for a calendar which featured quotes by Jane Austen along with fashion drawings from the Regency era when Jane Austen lived. They came from a magazine by Rudolph Ackerman called "The Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufactures, Fashion and Politics". Each issue of the magazine featured some of these pretty fashion plates. I found a blog article that tells a little about Ackerman's shop and magazine HERE.

After I created the pages, I emailed them to my friend Lorraine in England and she turned them into a beautiful wall calendar. Here is what the January 2012 page in the wall calendar looked like:

For 2026, I shrunk the wall calendar size pages down to 7x5" desk calendar size and added the dates on each image. Below each calendar page, I'm posting the matching Jane Austen quotes page in case you would like to use them in a craft project.
