About this work

This engraving depicts a woman, likely a queen, seated in a chair. She is adorned with a large ruffled collar and an elaborate headdress, and wears a dark dress with intricate patterns. The woman holds a scepter in her right hand, and a small cherub sits on her lap, holding a bow and arrow. The queen's face is serene, and her gaze is directed straight ahead. The background of the engraving is dark, with subtle shading that adds depth to the image. The overall effect is one of grandeur and majesty, fitting for a monarch.
