This is a black-and-white photograph from 1881. It shows Marion Hood dressed as Constance in a play called *Claude Duval* at the Olympic Theatre. The photo was taken by Alexander Bassano, who specialized in portraits of actors. Victorian actors often posed for these images to sell as collectible cards. This one was printed on stiff card meant to be tucked into albums. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more theatrical photos.
