This print shows two pages from an old booklet about St. James’s Theatre. It pairs four portraits side by side: Miss Herbert in 1860 and 1865, plus Miss Kate Terry around 1860 and Miss Marie Wilton around 1863. It’s a snapshot of Victorian theatre history, all printed on cheap souvenir paper. If you like this, look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
