The Beautiful House: With Its Seven Pillars is a book written by Frances Maitland Savill and first published in 1883. The book is a work of fiction that tells the story of a young girl named Edith, who is sent to live with her wealthy aunt in a grand house with seven pillars. The house is a symbol of the seven virtues that the aunt believes are essential to leading a good life: wisdom, justice, fortitude, temperance, faith, hope, and charity.As Edith settles into her new home, she learns about each of these virtues and how they can be applied to her own life. She also becomes involved in the lives of the other residents of the house, including her aunt's son and daughter, a governess, and a young artist who is painting a portrait of her aunt.Throughout the book, Edith learns important life lessons about kindness, forgiveness, and the importance of living a virtuous life. The Beautiful House is a charming and uplifting story that explores the power of moral values and the importance of living a life of purpose and meaning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
