A mezzotint by John Rafael Smith, released October 11, 1782. The image size is 63 x 39.5 cm.
This was the first print done from the Reynolds, and is closest to the original, though differences -- particularly in facial details -- are easily evident. In 1834, S. W. Reynolds did another, smaller edition (image roughly 17 cm. x 21.5 cm.) which shows even more exaggerations.
