Description: Unknown European/French Artist, 1800sFrench 19th Century Portrait Drawing of Queen Elizabeth I of England (1533-1603)Graphite on paper drawing17 7/8 by 13 inches (mount) 6 by 5 1/2 inches (sheet) With collection stamp of Winifred Robbins Collection. Until recently, the entire Robbins print collection was housed in the Robbins Library in Arlington, Mass., in an Italian Renaissance style building built with funds from an 1892 gift from the widow of Eli Robbins. The background of the collection is fascinating. Winfield Robbins, a nephew of Eli, had a passion for preserving history, especially portraits of historical persons, some famous, some not so famous. He believed that, in order to teach history properly, students should be able to see images of people they were learning about. He not only collected engravings dating back to the Fifteenth Century, traveling extensively in Europe to do so, but he also collected prints and photographs of prominent personalities of the late Nineteenth and early Twentieth Centuries.
