Known for her association with Charles Babbage and hailed as the first computer programmer, Lovelace's brilliance shines through this half-length portrait.

The Spanish dress she wears adds an exotic touch to the composition while also hinting at her adventurous spirit. Her veil delicately frames her face, emphasizing both her femininity and determination. Lovelace was not only the daughter of a famous poet but also possessed extraordinary mathematical abilities that set her apart from others of her time. This engraving serves as a testament to her groundbreaking contributions to science and technology. Displayed at The Royal Institution in London, this print offers viewers a glimpse into the life of an influential woman who defied societal norms and paved the way for future generations.
