This portrait shows a woman's profile. She's looking straight ahead. The artist used a technique to create lots of detail. The portrait is a mezzotint and engraving, which was a common way to make prints back then. This method allowed for lots of copies to be made. You can learn more about this technique by looking up the work of artist: Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J. Févret de.
