"Maria from Laurence Sterne's" is an engraving by Thomas Gaugain, a French-born British engraver and printmaker active during the late 18th century. The artwork is based on a character from Laurence Sterne's novel "A Sentimental Journey Through France and Italy," which was first published in 1768. Maria is one of the memorable characters from Sterne's work, embodying the sentimentality and emotional appeal that characterizes the novel.

Thomas Gaugain's engraving captures the poignant moment from the novel where the protagonist, Parson Yorick, encounters Maria, a distressed and mentally unstable young woman sitting alone outside a village in France. The image is reflective of the period's sensibilities, emphasizing the emotional depth and vulnerability of the character. Gaugain's work is notable for its fine detail and expressive quality, which brings to life the literary source material.

The piece is an example of the influence of literature on visual arts during the period and serves as an illustration of the cross-pollination between different art forms. It is also indicative of the popularity of Sterne's work and the way it captured the imagination of artists and the public alike. Gaugain's engraving not only pays homage to Sterne's literary creation but also contributes to the visual culture of the era by providing a face to the beloved character of Maria, thus extending the reach of the novel's emotional impact.
