A work made of etching on paper.

Juno and the Peacock

1770

Angelica Kauffmann Swiss, 1741-1807

Switzerland

Greatly admired for her portraits, Kauffmann also made etchings that occasionally, as here, reflect her mythological bent. This impression represents an early state of the etching, before the addition of the aquatint and the published state of 1780.
