Louise Juliana, Wife of Frederick IV is a 1850 ink by Unknown 19th Century, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a woman with a large, ruffled collar around her neck. Her hair is pulled back under a tall, decorated headdress, and she wears a necklace with a pendant. The background is plain, but her face is framed by a round border with text around it. The text around the border names her as Louise Juliana, wife of Frederick IV. The style looks old-fashioned, but it was actually made later, in the 1800s. Check out engraving to see how artists create detailed images like this with just lines.
