This engraving, created by K. Mackenzie in 1800, depicts Mary, Queen of Scots, a significant figure in Scottish history. The artwork is a detailed portrait, showcasing Mary in an oval frame. Mackenzie skillfully uses stipple engraving to create subtle shading and intricate details, like the delicate lace collar and the textured fabric of her dress. This print, part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, is a testament to the enduring interest in Mary, Queen of Scots, and the artistry of engraving during the 19th century.
