This is a title vignette created by Georg Christian Schule in 1783 for the second part of Samuel Richardson's novel "Clarissa Harlowe". The vignette depicts two figures, a man and a woman, in a circular frame surrounded by a wreath of foliage. The work is an example of engraving, a technique in which a design is incised into a surface and then inked to create a print. This vignette served as an illustration for the popular novel and was likely intended to capture the essence of the story for readers.
