Unknown Artist

National Gallery of Art

The image is an engraving showing the upper half of a woman's body. She is positioned in a three-quarter view, facing slightly to her left. Her facial features include a solemn expression, high forehead, and arched eyebrows, with her gaze directed towards the viewer. Her hair is styled high with intricate detail and is surrounded by an elaborate adornment resembling a crown or ornate headdress. She is wearing a detailed dress with a high, ruffled collar and puffed sleeves, adorned by intricate patterns. Around her neck hangs a large pendant on a chain. The background is a heavily patterned surface, and the portrait is encased within an oval frame with Latin inscriptions around the edge.
