This print shows a scene from a play, printed in the mid-1800s. It’s from Cajetan, who worked under the Theaterzeitung banner. A single bright detail stands out: the man’s cummerbund. Prints like this often capture costumes on stage. The catch? It’s titled “Rococo” but wasn’t tagged to a movement. Still, it’s a slice of theater history. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more prints from that time.
