An engraving of Pocahontas (Matoaka, c.1595–1617), indigenous American Powhatan Indian from Virginia. A half-length portrait, in tall hat with feather, high lace collar, brocade gown, holding a fan in her right hand. Within oval frame and inscription below. In 1614 she married the colonist John Rolfe (1586–1622), taking the name Rebecca, and returned with him to England where she died. This print is lettered around the portrait: "MATOAKA ALS REBECCA FILIA POTENTISS: PRINC: POWHATANI IMP: VIRGINIÆ."; beneath the portrait: "Ætatis suæ 21. A.o / 1616."; along the bottom: "Matoaks als Rebecka daughter to the mighty Prince … / wife to the wor.ll M:r Joh: Rolff. // Si: Pass: sculp: / Compton Holland excud:".

The print formed part of an album of portrait prints assembled by Cassiano and his younger brother Carlo Antonio dal Pozzo in Rome. Described in an early nineteenth-century inventory of prints in George III's library as Heads of English illustrious Personages, the album was dismantled later in the nineteenth century and incorporated into the sequences of British portrait prints in the collection.
