This portrait of Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington, is a small engraving by the German artist Ernst Ludwig Riepenhausen. The Duke is shown in profile, looking to the right, in military attire. The print was likely made during Wellington's lifetime, between 1775 and 1840, and showcases the artist's detail-oriented approach to the subject and a style popular in the early 19th century. Wellington was a famous British military leader and statesman, known for his victories in the Napoleonic Wars.
