This 1911 engraving by American artist Timothy Cole depicts Emma, Lady Hamilton, a renowned British socialite and the wife of Sir William Hamilton, a British diplomat. Cole is known for his meticulous line engravings, a technique that involves translating tonal values into lines. This engraving, "Lady Hamilton as Nature," showcases Cole's masterful ability to render detail and texture, capturing the delicate features of Lady Hamilton and the fluffy fur of her dog. The engraving is currently on display at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
