A black chalk drawing of the head and shoulders of the Queen. The drawing was probably the basis for a stipple engraving published in 1818 (see RCIN 604672 for an impression of the print). The print was entitled 'Her Most Gracious Majesty Queen Charlotte / in the seventy-fourth year of her age. An original and most correct likeness taken in the Pump-room at Bath during the time of her drinking the waters there'.
