This print shows a woman in a simple dress holding a fan. The artist carved lines into a metal plate to make this image. You can see her face lit from one side, which gives it depth. The print was made around 1730 by Coypel. It shows Adrienne Lecouvreur, a famous actress from that time. Her name appears on the print as "Adrienne Le Couvreur."
