Dryden is a 1798 by John Dryden, a Romanticism work, held at Catholic University of Leuven.
This drawing shows a portrait of Dryden. It's based on a painting by Sir Godfrey Kneller. The drawing was then engraved by W.Ridley and printed for C. Cooke in 1798. It's interesting because it involves multiple artists and steps to create the final print. You can learn more about the technique used to create this drawing by looking into cross-hatching.
John Dryden made a single drawing in 1798, a small portrait titled simply “Dryden.” Beyond that sheet of paper, nothing else survives under his name.
