About this work

This image shows a black-and-white family tree with a crowned man at the top. His face is inside a circle with a crown and fancy letters around it. Lines branch down to other names, each with small crowns or coats of arms next to them. The top figure is labeled as Donald I, the first king of Scotland in this chart. The whole thing looks like a history lesson in drawing. Check out how this was made using etching.
