This print is from the early 19th century. It's a portrait, which is a type of artwork that focuses on a person. The print is of Elizabeth O'Neill, and it was engraved by Blood from an original painting by Drummond. This suggests that the print is a reproduction of another artwork, which is an interesting aspect of its history.
