Queen Louise of Prussia

Johann Gottfried Niedlich

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white portrait of a woman in profile, facing right. The woman has her hair pulled back and appears to be wearing a head covering or a hat. She is wearing a dress with a draped shoulder. The portrait is circular and set against a darker circular background. The image is rendered in stippling. Below the portrait is a line of ornate text in a foreign language, likely German, followed by additional smaller text in the same language. The paper appears old and off-white with a rough edge on the right side.
