British printmakers in the 1830s often turned famous faces into small, collectible portraits. Edward Hargrave etched Sophie Arnold’s likeness on paper in 1837, giving us a crisp window into the period’s popular prints. The portrait shows Arnold in profile, her hair curled close to her head and a high-collared dress hugging her shoulders. Look for the artist’s initials tucked near the bottom margin.
