Born Alice Christiana Gertrude Thompson, she was immersed in the world of the arts from a young age, with her parents engaging in social circles that exposed her to the cultural milieu of the time. Meynell's 'Poems' (published in 1893) is emblematic of her lyrical subtlety and contemplative depth, showcasing her as a poet with a refined sensitivity to the natural world and the nuances of human emotion. She has been regarded as a writer who adeptly entwines spiritual and aesthetic themes, often marked by a serene and polished style that bears the influence of Romantic and Pre-Raphaelite traditions. Not limited to poetry, Meynell's prose works also reveal her discerning intellect and are revered for their eloquence and clarity.
