This anonymous engraving, created between 1702 and 1714, depicts Queen Anne of Great Britain in profile, framed by a circular chart detailing the names and reigns of English kings. The inscription "ANNA D.G. MAG. BR." identifies her as Queen Anne, by the Grace of God, Queen of Great Britain, and the chart further emphasizes her royal lineage, likely intended to legitimize her claim to the throne. The use of Latin and French on the chart suggests an international audience. The artwork provides a visual representation of the historical context of Queen Anne's reign.
