H Beard Print Collection is a 1813 by Benjamin Baker, a Romanticism work, depicting Catalogue, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print from 1813 is a catalog-style image. It shows the Drury Lane Theatre and was sold by George Greenhill. Made by Benjamin Baker, it fits the Romanticism movement. A fun detail: it’s titled the *London Almanack* and lists the year 1813. The print mixes business with art—everyday life meets theater culture.
