Elegant Victorian Queen Portrait Engraving

More about Elegant Victorian Queen Portrait Engraving

A highly detailed coloured engraving portrait of an elegant Victorian era queen, possibly Queen Victoria, adorned with jewellery and a crown, captured from the chest up against a plain antique off-white background. The woman faces slightly to the left, her gaze direct, with a gentle, discerning expression. Her dark hair is styled in a severe centre part, pulled back into an elaborate bun, revealing a slightly flushed complexion on her cheeks. She wears a magnificent crown with jewels, including a prominent blue gem at the centre, along with ornate pearl earrings featuring tassels, and a lavish three-strand pearl necklace. Descending from the necklace is a large, opulent pendant showcasing two large, oval-shaped jewels—one blue and one white—each surrounded by glittering diamonds. Her attire consists of an elaborate white gown with exquisite lace trim along the neckline and shoulders, accentuated by a sash or trim of deep blue, and a transparent veil or headpiece with embroidered floral motifs draped over her hair and shoulders. The engraving technique is visible, adding a fine, textured quality to the overall appearance.
