This print shows Queen Charlotte, wife of King George III, in 1772. The artist used fine lines to carve the portrait onto a metal plate. The work was printed the same year it was made, so people saw it soon after it was finished. It sits in the Victoria and Albert Museum now. Look up the museum’s Romanticism collection next.
