"Admiral Lord Nelson, by C. Turner 2 by John Hoppner" is a mezzotint engraving by Charles Turner, after an original portrait painted by the renowned British artist John Hoppner. The artwork is a representation of Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, who is one of Britain's most celebrated naval figures, known for his leadership during the Napoleonic Wars, particularly at the Battle of Trafalgar where he was mortally wounded.

The portrait by Hoppner, which served as the basis for Turner's engraving, is one of several depictions of Nelson created during his lifetime, capturing the visage of the naval hero at the height of his fame. Hoppner, a leading portraitist of the Regency era, was known for his ability to convey the character and social standing of his sitters. In his portrayal of Nelson, Hoppner emphasizes the admiral's resolute gaze and distinguished naval attire, reflecting both his status and his contributions to the British naval victories.

Charles Turner, an accomplished engraver, translated Hoppner's work into a mezzotint, a printmaking process known for its rich tones and subtle gradations of light and shade. Turner's engravings were highly regarded for their quality and fidelity to the original paintings. His rendition of Nelson would have served to disseminate the image of the admiral to a wider audience, allowing those who could not view the original painting to nonetheless appreciate the likeness of one of England's national heroes.

The collaboration between Hoppner's artistic skill and Turner's mastery of engraving techniques resulted in a work that not only memorialized Admiral Lord Nelson but also exemplified the high standards of British portraiture and printmaking at the turn of the 19th century. This particular piece remains an important historical artifact, reflecting both the cultural and artistic values of the period as well as the enduring legacy of Nelson himself.
