Queen Catherine of Aragon 1900

"Queen Catherine of Aragon" is a 1900 engraving by Timothy Cole, a prominent American artist known for his meticulous black and white reproductions of paintings. The artwork, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art, depicts a seated figure of Queen Catherine, who is listening to a woman playing a lute. Cole's work highlights the details of the original painting, using tonal gradations to capture the depth and richness of the original composition. The subject matter, along with the careful technique, makes this a compelling work of art history.
