H Beard Print Collection is a 1914 by Charles Buchel, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a scene from Wagner’s opera *Parsifal* as it looked on stage in London in 1914. Charles Buchel made it for a magazine spread, with text and portraits around the stage picture. It’s one of the first times British audiences saw this German opera live. The print mixes drama, music, and news in one image. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
