A second artist profile for #womenshistorymonth goes to English noblewoman, painter, and book illustrator Lady Diana Beauclerc, interestingly born Lady Diana Spencer (1734-1808). These etchings were designed by her for Gottfried Augustus Bürger's Leonora (London: Edwards and Harding, 1796). Original volume can be found in our Toppan Rare Books Library. #5womenartists #archivesofinstagram #alwaysarchiving #etchings #illustrations #rarebooks #toomanyangels #cherubpower (at American Heritage Center)
