Jane Austen's books are chock full of quotes that prove to be popular as tattoos and, while there aren't that many obvious illustrations, people are really creative at coming up with Austen-esque designs.

All of those tattoos are gorgeous. Thank you for sharing them with us. I especially liked the one that was a colour portrait of Jane.
