From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum

About this work

This print shows a portrait of Victor Hugo. It comes from a collection of prints by Carjat, made in the late 1800s or early 1900s. The work is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. It’s a photographic print, not a painting. This matters because photography was still new when Hugo posed for it. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
