This engraving by Pieter van Gunst, dating from 1688 - 1702, depicts Mary II of England, Queen regnant of England, Scotland, and Ireland from 1689 until her death in 1694. The portrait is framed by a decorative oval and features her in an elaborate gown and pearl necklace, with her coat of arms and a crown visible below. The engraving is a fine example of Dutch printmaking and offers a glimpse into the representation of royal figures during the late 17th century.
