Engraved Portrait of Elizabeth I
Elizabeth I appears within an inscribed oval frame, wearing an elaborate ruff and strings of pearls. Her richly patterned dress and jewelled headdress continue the portrait’s dense ornamental surface. Reproduced from a British Museum print, the image accompanies the journal’s discussion of her relationship with John Dee.
