This engraving by Gérard Edelinck, dating back to 1702, depicts Maria Theresa of Spain in profile, encircled by a Latin inscription identifying her as Queen of Austria, France, and Navarre. The engraving showcases the refined techniques of line engraving, which were popular in the 17th and 18th centuries. This artwork is a fascinating historical record of a significant royal figure and an example of a genre known as portrait engraving, which was popular for documenting prominent individuals.
