This print shows a portrait of a woman, Mrs Glover. She is dressed in old-fashioned clothes. The details in the print are very fine, which suggests it was made with care. The portrait is from 1802, which was a long time ago. The artist likely used a technique to create the fine details. You can learn more about this kind of printmaking by looking into the technique: sfumato.
