This print showcases the esteemed figure of William Penn, an English Quaker who played a pivotal role in the founding of Pennsylvania state in 1682. The engraving, created by an unknown artist during the 19th century, captures Penn's dignified presence and serves as a testament to his lasting legacy. Penn's portrait exudes authority and wisdom, reflecting his influential position as the founder of one of America's most significant colonies. With his iconic hat and distinguished attire, he embodies the spirit of colonial exploration and settlement that characterized the 17th and 18th centuries.
