Angelica Kauffmann (1741-1807) was a clever, Swiss-Austrian painter in 'the age of elegance'. Here are a couple of colorized etchings - probably from the late 18th century - after her paintings inspired by Homer's "The Iliad". I don't know where the paintings are today. Maybe you know ?
the first one is in the Finnish National Gallery,
the second in Berlin https://smb.museum-digital.de/object/106910 here you can see the original on line....
a few days ago I posted a hand painted plate with another draw of this serie

Thanks kivatinitz for the comments. I don't know about that in the Finnish National Gallery, but the one in Berlin is a print like mine and not the original painting.
