![[Queen Anne]](jpegs/40568.jpg)
[Queen Anne] Anna de Zeitregirent Königin in Engeland, Schottland, Franckreich und Irrand.
J.L. Höning scul. et excudit Norimb.
[c.1705]
Rare engraving, platemark 310 x 225mm (12¼ x 8¾"), with large margins. Crease through centre not visible from front.
Anne, queen of Great Britain and Ireland (1665-1714). Anne's twelve year reign proved a watershed between the violence of the seventeenth century and the stability and prosperity of the eighteenth century, which owed much to her personally. In 1707 she signed the Act of Union, uniting England and Scotland to create the Kingdom of Great Britain; Anne's fervent support for the Union contributed significantly to its acceptance by both kingdoms. Meanwhile, her staunch support of the duke of Marlborough in the face of opposition made it possible for him to use his skills to re-establish the balance of power in Europe. During Anne's reign neither political party triumphed; the final victory of the whigs came only after her death, with the reign of George I (whose Hanoverian succession Anne supported). Rare engraving by the Nuremburg printmaker and publisher Johann Lorenz Höning (1700-170, fl.).
