This title page for the third volume of Samuel Richardson's *Clarissa Harlowe's History* was engraved by the Danish artist Georg Christian Schule in 1783. The vignette in the center depicts a scene from the novel with two women sitting at a table. Schule's engraving is a delicate and detailed work, showcasing his skill in capturing the nuances of human expression. This title page was likely created for a Danish translation of the novel, indicating the popularity of Richardson's work in Denmark during this period.
