About this work

This print shows a head and torso portrait from 1794. It’s a Romantic-era work on paper by P. Rogerson. The artist captured Susanna Perwich in a keepsake style, with a few lines of text to mark the moment. It once belonged to Sir William Musgrave’s collection. That makes it a rare survivor from an old print album. Next time you’re nearby, swing by the Victoria and Albert Museum.
