DescriptionThe lower margin reads: "Lady Ann Campbell./ J. Reynolds pinx.t/ T. Johnson fecit./ COUNTESS OF STRAFFORD."ProvenanceThe history of this engraving is somewhat confused. It is almost identical to one done by R. Brookshaw, and one done by M'Ardell, except for size and publication line, Some feel it is an altered plate, others feel it is a different plate. In close observation, if it is altered, it is certainly a good job.
