This engraving by Reinier Vinkeles, created in 1791, depicts Lady Jane Grey, also known as Lady Johanna Grey. This small-scale artwork, measuring just 238 mm in height and 157 mm in width, is a fine example of portraiture. The engraving captures Lady Jane Grey's likeness within an oval frame, with the inscription "Lady Johanna Gray" at the top of the page. This artwork is currently part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The inscription "M: RHIJNVIS FEITH" below the portrait suggests the artwork may be related to the play "Lady Johanna Gray" written by Mr Rhijnvis Feith, a Dutch playwright.
