About this work

This engraving shows a sculpture of a man in a large alcove. He's wearing a hat, a fancy collar, and a cloak, and he's leaning on a chair with his head in his hand. The sculpture is on a pedestal with some words carved into it. The man's clothes and the words on the pedestal look old-fashioned. The sculpture is set into a big archway with columns on either side. The archway and the pedestal have lots of details carved into them. This engraving was made by William Henry Worthington, an artist who worked in the Romanticism movement.
