The Rt. Honble Edward Earl of Oxford and Earl Mortimer obt. 1741.

Publ. likely early 18th century, perhaps 1746, London.

Engraved by G. Vertue.

Rare 18th century engraved portrait.

Print has been long ago expertly mounted along the sliver edges to a larger sheet of nice hand-made paper in order to mount it at one point into a print collection album.

The backing sheet is mostly cut away, allowing the print sheet to be completely examined front and back.

Below the portrait penciled in an early authoritative hand is that the print is a Proof prior to the library ..?

Pictures capture condition better than words, please review them carefully.

Nice copper engraved portrait, over 300 years old, so not new but no problem or issues aside from normal visible signs of handling, time and age common to most surviving paper images of this era.

Backing sheet measures c. 13 5/8" H x 8 5/8" W.

Engraved Image area c. 10 3/8" x 7".
