This chromolithograph, part of the *World's Sovereigns* series, depicts Queen Regent of Spain. It was created by Allen & Ginter in 1889 as a trade card for their Richmond, Virginia cigarette brand. The artwork features a portrait of the queen in a jeweled crown, surrounded by a decorative border with her coat of arms. This card, like many of the series, provides a glimpse into the popular culture of late 19th-century America.
