About this work

This is a Victorian photo by Clarkington & Co. It shows an actor named Parselle. Photos like this were new and popular back then. Most actors posed for studio shots in costume or regular clothes. These were printed on stiff cards called "cartes de visite." They became a big trend in the 1860s. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
