This print is from the H Beard Print Collection. It's a work by Blaisot, created in the early 19th century. The print depicts Mlle. Duchenois, an actress from the Théâtre Français, in the role of Jeanne d'Arc. This gives us a glimpse into the theatrical world of the time. To learn more about printmaking techniques, look up the technique of sfumato.
