Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this masterpiece now resides in a private collection.

With meticulous attention to detail, the engraver has beautifully captured Swift's likeness, immortalizing his sharp intellect and piercing gaze. This digitally cleaned reproduction allows us to appreciate every delicate line and shading technique used in its creation.
