Historical Engraving of Founding-Era Figure in 18th-Century Dress #3726861 (License: Personal Use)

This finely detailed woodcut or steel engraving depicts a man in profile, wearing a powdered wig tied back in a queue, a high stiff cravat, and a double-breasted coat with epaulets-typical of late 18th-century elite or military fashion. The use of cross-hatching and stippling creates depth and texture, especially in the hair and facial features, suggesting the work of a skilled printmaker of the Federalist era. Though the subject is not definitively identified, his appearance aligns with portraits of American or European political leaders circa 1770-1790.

Commonly used in digital archives, educational websites, and museum exhibits about the American Revolution or Enlightenment-era leadership; serves users seeking visual references for historical figures, costume studies, or printmaking techniques.
