Elizabeth Judkins' engraving, *Mrs. Abington*, depicts a portrait of a woman in a lavish white gown and lace. This mezzotint, possibly completed in 1772, showcases the artistry of Judkins, a female engraver active in 18th century England. *Mrs. Abington*, likely an actress, is shown in an oval frame, highlighting her prominent position in society, a practice commonly used for portraits of prominent figures.
