The Carfax Hotel

This is a reproduction of a mezzotint made by John Faber Jr (1695-1756). It's probably a scan of a photo of the mezzotint that appeared in some book, but it's unclear which one. John Faber Jr made the mezzotint in 1754, but he was copying a portrait by Thomas Hudson (1701-1779).

Two mezzotint impressions from the same plate as this image are held by National Portrait Gallery, London: NPG D344 and NPG D19992. It's likely, but not certain, that this is a photo of one of those mezzotint impressions.
