With an contemporary support adhered to the top sheet edge. 19th century text in graphite added to the shield held by the putti. The image has been cropped to exclude the top portion of a recumbent figure whose legs are covered by a shroud and whose left hand remains visible in the left-center image area propped upon an pillow holding a heart. While this drawing appears to have been completed in the mid-18th century given the Neoclassical style media and paper the text "Kind Hearts and Coronets" comes from the poem Lady Clara Vere de Vere by Alfred Lord Tennyson. The poem was pubished in 1842 indicating that the pencil inscription in the image was added later. unknown
