Mary, Queen of Scots 1793

This engraving by John Kay, a Scottish artist, depicts Mary, Queen of Scots, and is a classic example of portraiture from the late 18th century. Created in 1793, it showcases the Queen in an oval frame, wearing a ruff collar and a cross necklace. The engraving's fine details and realistic portrayal of Mary's features reflect Kay's skill as an artist and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. The artwork is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
